How did you get into debt?
I got into debt through earning an undergraduate degree with the unavoidable assistance of subsidized and unsubsidized loans.

How does your economic reality effect your art?
Art does not get made most of the time. A lack of money for materials, tools, and space prohibit sculpture work intensely. Art goes 2-dimensional instead of its intended existence as 3-dimensional.

Would your work look different if you weren't in debt?:
Without debt, I would challenge myself to travel freely to discover new communities of art makers, source materials, and identify exhibition spots.
