Statement

My abstract drawings and paintings investigate ideas about place and belonging. Using a range of materials, I employ line, color, and shape to create gridded structures that can be perceived as both sturdy and precarious, merging and splitting. These dualities mirror the bonds connecting us to each other and the places we call home.

Because I moved many times during my childhood, I'm fascinated by how we find home within ourselves, especially when external surroundings are constantly shifting. I believe we all have an internal navigation system guiding us. My work attempts to give form to these invisible, yet deeply felt, signals.
