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.
