Artist Statement:
Our cultural history is full of events that teeter on the edge of being macabre and absurd. Those people involved are usually the ones that have been marginalized by societal standards. By not fitting in their place and time these individuals are victimized by mankind's need to categorize and explain things that fall outside of the box. The uniqueness that separates them contrasts the mundane reminding me that the world with never perfectly conform. I take comfort in that. The bizarre inspires me.
