Spookah
August 26-September 26
Reception: September 26 | 4:30 p.m.
In my creative journey, I delve into the depths of my subconscious, where gnarly dreams
and vivid imagery intertwine. I'm captivated by the intricacies within these visions,
each detail connected to a deeper truth, waiting to be unveiled. As I explore the
context behind these images, they form a personal mythology, a narrative unique to
my own experience. Driven by an innate need to share these revelations with the world,
I seek to saturate my work with their identity and significance.
