My work speaks to the complicated and often contradictory relationships
humans maintain with other animals.

We have taken great measures to keep the wild,
unpredictable and problematic aspects of nature at bay,
and yet we also cannot resist the need to be connected to that which we came from.

In today's increasingly nature deprived society our most intimate connection
with the natural world tends to be sith plants and animals
that we ourselves have drastically altered through the process of domestication.

Wild animals have been turned into pets, genetically sculpted into sweeter, cuter,
less dangerous versions of themselves, permanently altered by man¡¯s effort to fulfill their need for relentless love, amusement and companionship.

Meanwhile, our homes have become barriers that keep the wild out,
yet they are filled with caged animals, potted plants and
countless other controlled and contrived representations of the natural world.

My work aims to illustrate the evidence of both our dominance over
and our affection for nature, as well as the cohabitation of our unease and desires regarding it.
