Artist Statement
My work in this exhibition reflects who I am and what I stand for. A large portion of my work here is illustration based, which is where my passion has always been. In my time at Oswego, I've tried to incorporate things I'm passionate about in my work, like climate change, mental health, and discrimination against black Americans. These issues are important to me, and the ability to incorporate my passion into those issues has been extremely fulfilling.
