Artist Statement

 I work in interdisciplinary abstraction based out of craft. This is painting, installation, and textile, ranging from wall hangings and freestanding objects to performances. The works are floating landscapes that speak to the multicentered sensory and emotional experience of living in society with a body. The marks are all neighbors in a dystopian scene, smushed-together symbols of lived experiences in relationship to each other. I use materials and imagery that reference the vocabulary of traditional craft, domesticity, workshop spaces, mass production, and artificiality.
