Artist's Statement
I started “The Escape Artist” in March of 2020, around the time the pandemic was unfolding in the United States. What began as an expression of directing energy towards creating positive solutions and opportunities for life shifted to a much more personal search for transcendence. The title references the feeling of respite I experienced while painting it. In depicting symbols of freedom and optimism, I’m able to temporarily expel my fears and anxieties; the finished work serves to relay this transcendence to others.
