My art formulations are a window into visual realism from animated movements of imagination including cognizant examination of probabilities. I will articulate concepts within both contemporary art praxis and Indigenous terminology. Specifically, I draw from many influences such as contemporary modern painting and drawing techniques, cultural contexts of French, Ukrainian and Metis, with theoretical frameworks of quantum physics, philosophy, post-modernism and pop culture entertainment. Conceptually, I explore the illusory, the invisible aspects of transformation adjacent to unseen communication formulations that manifest in the human sub-consciousness, consciousness mind and body that is linked to ancestral past heritage within an achieved treatment of imaginative realism
