My paintings and works on paper depict figures in colorful, geometric architectural spaces undergoing the conflicts and desires of the human experience. I explore material and mark making to generate nonlinear dreamscape narratives that provoke perception while challenging the grand narrative tradition. My work oscillates between themes of presence and absence, fact and fantasy, and reason and madness.

Drawing on autobiographical memories, literature, and art history, my artwork is rife with symbolism, ranging from fetish and landscape imagery to Mesoamerican iconography. Combining representation and abstraction with a process of layering drawing, painting, and collage, I create fragmented compositions inspired by the dynamic environments in which I live.
