Career


Artist Statement


My art is inspired by my belief that masculinity is toxic in many areas of the lives of people in American culture today. An example would be the statement that "boys don't cry".
I am an ally and activist to various communities that are considered the unusual or outcasts of American society.
I believe my art is my voice, and I use it stand with the feminine male, the queer community.
