My current series of sculptures feature abstracted human, animal, and imaginary figures based on the Popol Vuh. The Popol Vuh is the ancient holy book of the Quiche Maya. The stories revolve around creation myths as well as accounts of gods and heroes. I draw a lot from my experiences and observations of religion, Latin culture, and personal caricatures of my thoughts. The work is derived from the act of expressing emotion and raw thought into a physical entity. First born of the mind they take shape and an actual presence. They spring out and have a raw/visceral existence.
