"My work is an attempt to convey with earnestness and compassion the trials and tribulations of the common creature. The slithery forms and toddler skull empires I construct are a way in which I can test the depths of my own imagined depravity against an appetizing backdrop of edible leitmotifs. Disturbing incidents of real-world violence, intentional and otherwise, are filtered through a fruit salad lens in order to bring forth uplifting and lighthearted narratives of triumph and disaster. Bit by bit, I aim to construct a visual universe as vast and dynamic as the intangible, imagined counterpart from which each idea is plucked. It is very much an open ended project." --Ben Duncan
