Statement
I am an interdisciplinary artist that creates site-specific installations, sculptures, and 2D works that explore themes of mortality and identity through the lens of personal narrative. Drawing from sentimental objects and ephemera, I use found materials such as wood, fabric, botanicals, jewelry, and metals to create art that confronts the senses of longing and grief that arise from loss, and our relationship with the impermanence of the human body.
