My work lives in the tension between what is delicate, and what is enduring. Through layered abstraction, I dismantle and rebuild forms using materials like petals, fragmented, found objects, pigments, chemical reactions, and textures to trace how the past continues to exist through the surfaces of the present
I am drawn to dichotomies. I think in collisions… where florals meet metal, softness lends itself to structure, and memory imagines the future.
Nostalgia is not a sentiment in my practice; rather, it is an architectural practice. To me, memory builds a bridge between eras to the legacies of humans before us, but most importantly, ask us to dream of our own potential and each piece, something once lost resurfaces. Something hardened softens. Something fractured begins to regrow.
