Consisting primarily of painting and sculpture, my practice uses abstraction to process memories and explore connections between human emotion and the natural world. Experiences of survival and growth lead to a search for self-understanding and open up an instinctive relationship to the process of making. This work constitutes not a metaphor but an intuitive mapping of a search for energy and lightness within my body and its psychological relationship to memory, love, and material.
Material transformation and play allow me to engage in an internal excavation of self and suggest concealed aspects of my personal narrative. It is a daily process of breathing in freshness to explore the curiosity and awe I have with nature and humanity. Combining forms through their most elemental properties, I am invested in my work with constant courage and integrity to be vulnerable.
Informed by changing conditions of light and texture, the surfaces often focus on a slightly unstable or transitory condition between the states of different elements, such as marble and glass, or layers of paint. The dance of making marks—considering them, and responding to them—is an integral aspect of my process. Exploring personal consciousness through the impact of light and shadow, each composition creates a space in which an internal feeling is barely gestured to–just beyond visibility or naming. The resulting paintings and sculptures create tension between minimal and overworked areas through building up, scraping down, and alternating intensity.. In abstract layers of opacity and translucency, my works ask how to locate beauty in the shadows and bring light into life.
