In my series Ghost Man, the main thing I try to express is an outside view of ourselves
to break the stress we hold on slight inconveniences that occur in our lives. Some of these could be as simple as dropping your phone which cracked the screen or Ghostman being trapped in a famous painting. The relevance of my work is therapeutic for the viewer (and artist) in allowing them to see situations as an opportunity to laugh rather than fret over. The comedic value in my work is also supported by the traditional medium I choose to use to create a slapstick contrast of execution to Ghost Man’s dilemas.
