Artist Statement: Amputation from something one is dependent on is a part of life we all must inevitably face. Being torn away from something you need, be it a relationship or an object is never comfortable. My work being a vessel through which I express this discomfort in change is shown through my figures and the sitautions they are casted in. Trapped in a world of fixed circumstances, dead-locked into a life where there is no safe or even a gaurenteed fall-back.

This series explores the life after the intial shock of being cut off of one's desperate needs and the uncertainess that surely follows. Abstract styles are used to personify this rocky lifestyle. The colors sway and lull the viewer into a dreamlike state. Slowly creeping into a feverish and confused passion from having nothing left.
