The Measure of Loss. Understanding experiential trauma, associated with significant loss, is universal. It defines our ability to cherish and recognize the true nature of unconditional love. Often the thing that is not present occupies more space that that which is. 
Eriq is currently focused on weaving ephemera into upcycled works, that promote reframing perspectives. He finds kinship with the discarded and discounted materials he employs.
A student of OTIS College of Art and Design and UCLA Fine Arts prepared him for an expansive and varied career, which has included commissions in Bronze, as well as fine art originals and prints for Corporate clients. 
Eriq's work can be found in noteable collections throughout the world, which are playful, melancholy examples of his nimble curiosity. 
“Perspective is paramount. I see visual relationships that I commune with through my work. I expose the underserved aspects of a disjointed reality, that I weave together, to tell the story, of us”.
