I question the eye as a trusted narrator of the perceived world.
Working across painting, sculpture, and installation, I examine how perception operates through color, surface, and material, attending to the thresholds where visual recognition gives way to spectral sensing and feeling.
Drawing from embodied memory and a private collection of ephemera, I develop compositions structured around internal tension rather than narrative clarity. Scenes of quotidian life are sourced and hybridized through an accumulation of thinly layered drawing and painting mediums. Through opacity, density, and reflectivity, figures emerge within domestic settings that remain mutable and unstable, sites of ongoing unfolding. Gestural fields of umber, sienna, and blue are worked wet-on-wet. Figures are often entangled within architectural fragments. Limbs and faces surface briefly, anchoring the eye before dissolving back into the painted field.
Across my practice, I remain attentive to the power of images, the histories they carry, and the stories they produce. Rather than resolving into fixed meanings, the work sustains ambiguity, holding perception open through duration, restraint, and material insistence.
