Artist Statement:
My work investigates the fluid boundaries between memory, geography, and human interaction with the landscape. I collect, interpret, and reconstruct elements of place—whether tangible artifacts like stones and debris or ephemeral qualities like light and atmosphere. Through painting, installation, and mixed media, I explore how places hold histories, both personal and collective, and how they transform over time.
The attached artwork reflects my ongoing interest in mapping intangible experiences. Layers of interwoven lines, geometric structures, and shifting color fields suggest an intricate web of connections—like a topographical map infused with emotion. The transparency of color and overlapping patterns mimic the way landscapes evolve, shaped by natural forces and human intervention. These compositions reference organic systems, cycles of erosion and renewal, and the tension between permanence and impermanence.
Much of my work is influenced by site-specific research and the act of collecting—physical objects, memories, and even digital fragments. By incorporating these elements, I seek to create visual spaces that feel simultaneously familiar and mysterious, evoking the shifting nature of place and belonging.
Ultimately, my practice is an invitation to reconsider how we navigate and imprint upon the world. Each work serves as a meditation on the delicate balance between human presence and natural forces, prompting reflection on our role within the ever-changing landscape.
