An opening reception will occur on March 17 from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. in the Vargas Gallery.

My multidisciplinary artworks investigate how disparate experiences and alternative realities impact truth. The goal is to identify patterns within the natural and manmade world. Mediums are repurposed by altering function to explore inequality within ideology. Inspiration and research dictate the final form.
