My artistic life has always been ignited by the concept of "façade".

The pieces of art and theatre that have touched the inner most part of my soul since the age of four have been based around this topic. I am intrigued by human behavior : the snarling underbelly of a charming smile, if you will.

Nothing is ever quite as it seems upon further inspection and that, however, is not always a bad thing. I have found in my experience of setting out to create new works that, even at a subconscious level, all roads eventually lead back to this word.

Façade.

I believe that audiences will never tire of it because it is a concept that we deal with every single day in every single moment of our lives... even in the moments we are alone. I believe that we all, even the most "in-tune" individuals, hide parts of ourselves from ourselves.

Thus, I have decided set out and persistently tug at the mask of façade with nothing more than a fake pipe, an idea, and an inquisitive brow!
