Art Practice
My practice is attuned to the capacity of art to shape ideas and tell stories, and to resist or reinscribe dominant cultural myths. My work approaches issues of power and identity, looking at themes of queerness, family, relationships, secrets, grief, and the body. Through the use of color, texture, and layering, I explore the visual and metaphoric complexity of emotional connection, revealing material evidence of both fragility and strength, engaging the raw aesthetics of destruction and repair. My work is about resistance, about reclaiming those discarded and devalued pieces of ourselves and stitching them back together. It is a means to witness pain and to celebrate survival and resilience. My work serves as an archive of my own lived experience, one used to mark time and process change.
All of the artwork on this site is my original work.
