I am interested in the mind-body bond, spectrum and binary: The lived body. I understand my art practice as intuitive waste; conscious and unconscious ways in which I process the push and pull of information I absorb through the direct and indirect experience. I find myself reaching for substance and thinking in stanzas.

Substance - mediums both written and physical; paper, clay, paint, and poetry. 

Stanzas - fragments of what I’ve heard, said or read paralleled with imagery resembling the past, the present and the unknown. 

My practice with substance and stanza reveal a gap between self and other which I explore visually to unlearn, relearn and redefine through distortion and manipulation of material.

Themes I explore include: 

Neurodivergence

Body Autonomy

Transparency 

Abuse - emotional & physical

Mental health awareness 

STI awareness

Climate change
