I’ve used biblical imagery, gothic motifs, and specific character tropes from Herman Melville’s classic novel, Moby Dick to reflect on the dichotomy of power, narcissism, and the natural world.

The series of paintings utilize hand-made sculptures and collage to create the imagery.

Come one and all – I will be there to have a chat!
