Artist Statement
Inspired by the ubiquitous and sometimes pervasive nature of visual communication, I am compelled to explore the perceptions that brands create for themselves. In particular, I have contemplated brand characteristics and how these create notions of the value of products, services, and even individuals. The perception of these brands, the meaning of symbols, and how these forms of communication evolve forge the basis of my explorations.
