​​Statement

Through abstract painting, I explore the relationships between perception, connection, and materiality. Blending elements of textile art, printmaking, and sculpture, my work engages with layered spaces where surface, depth, and form intersect.

Using synthetic and natural pigments made from plants, sediments, and flowers I grow and gather, I combine techniques like dyeing, bundling, stitching, and stuffing. These processes transform flat canvases into textured, three-dimensional reliefs, collapsing distinctions between painting and object. Patterns and marks echo the rhythms of natural, celestial, and animal bodies, evoking layered landscapes and relationships.

By layering colors and textures that seep and stain unpredictably, I create compositions that reflect bodies and environments in states of flux. This interplay of surface and depth reveals tensions between chaos and control, proximity and distance, intimacy and detachment.
