"Amidst the Uncertainty" focused on themes and ideas that I was unable to articulate through words alone. I transferred these to a visual form to help express them to others and describe what was going on in my mind.

To accompany these works, musician and producer Jon Tschida created an original soundscape that corresponds to the art on view.

“Uncertainty…Whether it be the indecisiveness on the correct course of action; the adversity that accompanies Depression, Anxiety, and ADHD; or the inability to articulate the thoughts inside my own mind; uncertainty has become a great influence on my creative journey and this exhibition was put together to gain a better understanding of my racing thoughts and start a conversation.

Although so much is chaotic and out of control, or so it feels, I find comfort in creating. This is the only venture in which I have found any stability. I am still uncertain of where art will take me, or exactly what path I will continue down; however, creative production is the one thing giving me any desire to move forward.”
