I see art as a vehicle for change where people and communities come together to engage in processes of social interaction and creative exchange. The dynamic relationships that come out of these situations give each project its distinct character. I often use the experiences of gift giving and exchange as the key catalysts for developing these dynamic relationships. The materials and technologies I use vary with each project and depend on each context and situation.
