ABOUT

I work across a range of media, including sculpture and printmaking, though painting remains my primary focus. My practice functions as a visual response to my experiences in relation to the world, engaging recurring themes of entropy and the fluidity of memory. While each body of work establishes its own narrative framework, its interpretation and underlying meanings are ultimately left to the viewer.

 

My current project, Things in the Woods, follows an evolving narrative of a lone figure lost within a forest that operates as both a literal and symbolic space. As the protagonist moves through this uncertain terrain, the work examines survival and instability through elemental motifs, moments of struggle, and confrontations with the unknown.
