Artist statement

“We photograph things in order to drive them out of our minds.”
As a bi-racial woman, I am interested in exploring how multiple perspectives are conveyed though image and text. Informed by historical events, literature, personal memory, fantasy and urban legends, my work explores how culture, place and identity intersect to imagine a new account or re-envisioning of events. Ultimately, I hope to raise questions that challenge long held assumptions and urban lore. To accomplish this I use a wide range of media.
