On Art Battle: “Artists are cooped up in studios, where it’s a very solitary activity. Here, it becomes almost a sport. I never competed very well in sports or made it to any competitions, and all of a sudden, there’s a venue where my art can be part of a social event where people get pumped up and cheer? This is literally a party, and I get to do what I love at the same time.”

Inspiration: “When I was looking through my pictures for inspiration, I found this one: it was taken by my boyfriend up north at a cabin, where they had a trampoline. I just got on, shoved my camera at my boyfriend and he caught the moment.”

“I have a series called Toothy. I guess it’s a part of that”
