Artist‘s Statement
In my art, I try to capture the emotion behind the action. I’m constantly searching for the “why” of things, especially when it comes to human behaviour. If I can accurately express the way humans work and the reasons behind the places we find ourselves in life, then I can get closer to a real connection with the rest of the world.
This flash fiction piece brings us sixteen-year-old Carrie, who is bright, brilliant, and ambitious. Carrie is also sweet, kind, and loving. Why then, is Carrie sitting in jail accused of mass homicide?
