ARTIST STATEMENT

For my work I’ve created a concept called Fantastic Functionalism. This concept involves creating an alternative reality filled with objects and environments which are imbued with extreme idealism and hope. I look at everyday problems on a emotional, physical and social level and imagine new possibilities and solutions for them. I think of my work as the sketches or plans of a mad and naïve inventor creating fantastical machines, passageways, bus stops, transportation devices and shelter from a playground of transformed shapes and bright colors that stems from the ordinary.
