“I am striving to anchor myself in contemporary popular culture using an antiquated process, the relief print,” says the artist. “In my work, the struggle between Carnival and Lent is a mismatch, a pitched battle ending in high jinks. Without our follies we would be without a sense of morality, perhaps more importantly, without a sense of humor or empathy. My work attempts to strike a balance between the ugly and the alluring, between popular culture and the highfalutin, between the sacred and the profane.”
