I've long held a fascination with ancient artworks and structures, most notably those of ancient Egypt. In these works I explore that fascination, and I pushed the boundaries of my drawing by working on wrinkled, torn paper, creating pieces that remind me of artifacts. I also began working with symbolism and context - juxtaposing more modern religious symbols with those from ancient times.
