Artist Statement

My art is inspired by an anthropological fascination of today’s society and the history leading up to it. Having grown up between Italy, Guatemala, Israel, and Florida, four vastly different cultures, I create works that explore history, religion, family, cultural identity, psychology, and politics. My work is inspired by the art, iconography and mythology from these different cultures and their history; Greco Roman, Mesoamerican, Middle Eastern, and modern day western influences. My desire is to evoke an interest in people to understand as much about humanity’s culture and history in order to understand the context of the modern day, making more informed decisions for the future.
