I create video installations. By immersing myself in new technologies, I have had the opportunity to create a number of large-scale installations and in the process have had many rewarding and collaborative experiences. My video installations are on many topics, including Climate Change, and have been exhibited in the US, South America & Europe. A number of my video installations are in the public collection of Delta Air Lines and installed in Fort Lauderdale, Miami, Los Angeles and LaGuardia/New York airports.
The core of my work is about ‘connection’; the connection to the self, each other and to all life forms. It is my philosophy, that we humans are not only of this world, we are also connected to the broader universe. It is this concept that permeates throughout my work.
