My practice is grounded in oil painting and my work exists within the amal-gamation of figuration and expressionism, exploring the nuances of memory, nature, and technology as they relate to the human body. While they weave a personal narrative, my paintings generally speak to a mode of preservation through different styles of rendering, using mark making as a way to commun-icate memory and denote the passage of time. I use the rhetoric of painting to find ways in which I can reconcile a world and society that exist within post-environmentalism, born of climate change and advancing technology.
