My work is mainly focused on repetition and how it allows my subconscious to take control. I repeat a motion or action over and over until it becomes automatic and meditative.  I have coined the term ‘Quiet Violence’ in order to accurately describe my intention and process.  Quiet violence is the constant, regular trauma that we encounter on a daily basis, which often goes unnoticed.  In the end, all that remains visible is the scar of making.
