Artist Statement
These drawings are inspired by the common visual language felt and seen whenever large numbers of people mass and unite in protest. I began the series during the Global Protest Wave of 2019 and continued with renewed urgency in June 2020, responding to the energy and imagery of public dissent in a world desperate for transformation.
All of my work over the last five years uses a visual language of flat shapes, compressed and moving forms, and a combination of abstraction and representation. However, in this new body of work, those elements are realized in a context that has shifted from the personal to the political.
