I have traveled throughout the US, Europe the Middle-East and North Africa and am trilingual. My artistic tendencies manifested early in a time-line of continuous metamorphic mutations, spewing the different modalities of my life.

I don't see art as a fragmented, socio-economical or politico-cultural event cloisoned by geographic boundaries and systems of separation, but rather as the continuous manifestation of infinite life through the
expression of the "I" in the individual.

The whole of the artistic universe is where I dwell; not east nor west, nor north or south. I find it hard to categorize, differentiate, box, label or limit; a precarious act of self petrification. Ultimately and inexorably the final synthesis is what the work is about.
