How do you capture experience?

Our lives are made from memories, the linearity of which is questionable when you try to filter through your thoughts. Well, at least it is for me. Memories turn into a jumbled collage of patterns and place. They bring the past to the present, sometimes channeling ancestral knowledge.

Life-Cycle(s) series is based on an idea —that past and present live within us at the same time. Drawing significant stylistic inspiration from the work of naive (a native style of art) artists in Guatemala. The paintings signal to parts and times of my life, overlapping and confusing time and place.
