HUMAN ENERGY FIELDS

Human beings are conditioned and constrained by family, education, society and nationality to see themselves through the lens of their cultural, religious, gender or sexual identity. My interest in epigenetics and my experience with palliative care has informed my practice of portraying human beings as morphogenic energy fields. Rather than depicting human beings as conceptual identities my paintings speak of humans as energy fields made up of a combination of trillions of chemicals, hormones, neurotransmitters and bacteria.
