Artist/Curatorial Statement

I believe that art must always be progressing and evolving. Although I do a form of traditional indigenous art, I try to take that solid foundation and push it in new directions.

The New Territory set (New Territory - Air and New Territory - Sea) is a visual expression of remaining grounded in tradition while pushing the boundaries and exploring new territories. The prints depict the animals in a traditional circle spindle whorl and, although the majority of the animal bodies remain inside the spindle whorl, the noses of the animals are breaking through the edge of the circle to explore new territory. This represents the always-evolving nature of art.
