My art is about turning chaos into chorus, about communicating through the voices of a crowd, rather than just one voice.
To accomplish this, I use an entire lifetime of handwriting, photography, graphic design, writing, illustration and painting styles I developed from elementary school to the present. I then use these various styles to bring out the diversity of graffiti writer voices to communicate everything from the uncultivated to the intellectual, from the banal to the eccentric, from the meaningless to social commentary.
I want my work to stimulate critical thinking - to help a viewer better understand the world through the eyes of strangers.
