My work is about story telling. I tend to explore my anger, my fears and my insecurities, stemming from my childhood and early adulthood, through the gruesome tales of the Grimms brothers, Perrault, Heinrich Hoffmann, and Hilaire Belloc.

 Recently I've been particularly interested in studying the history and the allegories of the violent tale of Little Red Riding Hood.

My work has weaved Little Red's tale and my own personal monologues together creating a new narrative which opens a dialogue with previous versions of Little Red Riding Hood.

The work also integrated some elements which come from related reading, such as the work of Brownmiller who observed Little Red Riding Hood as a parable of rape, Bettleheim who talked about the wisdom that only the "twice born" can process, Geza Roheim who thought that the wolf, the grandmother, and the little girl, are essentially the same person, and the study of Marina Warner looking at fear in No Go The Bogeyman. 

 My work is very theatrical, playful and usually references to childhood. I like to play with the metamorphosis of the ordinary and familiar into a dark, grotesque, absurd and disturbing alternative. I distort my characters into beautiful and monstrous creatures.

 My main visual influences are Louise Bourgeois, Paula Rego, Niki De Saint Phalle, Giacometti, Cy Twombly and Annette Messager as well as the motion animation of Jan Svankmajer, the Quay Brother and early Polanski films.

I explore my ideas through painting, sculpture and installation.
