Artist's Statement:
The premise of "In Our Veins" is to explore the connections between all life forms and the cycle of life. Through a psychological, and sometimes visceral, approach, this series investigates our relationships to each other and to the natural world, as well as our role in the life cycle. Concepts such as life and death, survival and exploitation, and the interdependence and destruction of living and nonliving organisms are illustrated throughout. Using imagery derived from dreams and free association, "In Our Veins" demonstrates these ideas in a surreal, psychologically-charged narrative.
