My current research leads me down a vein of comfortability. Specifically, the comfortability that the feeling of home creates. Why do we feel at home when and where we do? For me this becomes a conversation between temporality regarding social science, and emotional intelligence.

By examining the world around me I layer and compose images in a back and forth, digital to analog process. This process involves me photographing, sometimes on the microscopic level, items that I consider part of my identification with home. Perhaps a place or a micro space that has moments worth visually considering. By employing and combining use of both hand and digital drawing, both traditional painting and projections, hi-key light and lo-fi music I create a deeper familiarity of what I consider home for myself.

The resulting images are a sort of psychological playground that exists in a sense of space that I have created using the push and pull of light, color, and texture. I want the viewer to have a positive experience as they are choosing to interact with or simply view my installations, much like the warm feeling of home.
