ARTIST STATEMENT
A juxtaposition of image and pattern with a predominant concern for a lightsource lends itself to the prismatic breakup of light and encourages boldness in the application of color
Islamic patterning is the human approach towards identifying with a universal sense of order Memories fade over time and are retained merely in their essence. These memory and dream essences and their fragmentary composition allow to make us who we are today
