ARTIST STATEMENT

My works concern themselves with the functionality of the staged image in political contexts. To do this, I use existing photographical and documentarian footage from archives to harness images that are well fixed in the collective memory. 
The physical product of my research are large scale painting installations which broach the issue of the public and private sphere due to their mobility and double-sidedness, while simultaneously serving as an arena for collective memory.
