“My work begins with a physical impulse, I am pulled toward a material, a texture, a remembered place, or a question I long to have answered. My studies in movement, dance, and yoga do not appear as performance, but they inform how I move through the studio, how I layer marks into a painting, and how I arrange physical and visual elements within space. I think of the body as a sensing instrument—moving through memory, holding fragments of the past, attuned to quiet shifts in rhythm and form. Alongside this physical intuition runs a connected thread of research—I pour myself into image archives, textiles, design systems, and the psychology of perception. I’m drawn to the moments that are overlooked or half-remembered, to the small clues that objects and environments offer about how we see, what we carry, and how meaning settles into form. I’m interested in the in-between: where images become feeling, where emotion shifts and takes tangible form, where design can create purpose. The place where a final piece of work becomes a kind of trace—evidence that something meaningful has passed through.”
