Statement

As an emerging mixed media artist, my passion resides in crafting surreal illustrations and portraiture. While I am a painter at heart, I have begun to explore sculpture as a means of finding physicality in my work.

Central to my process are feminist methodologies and themes that help me craft my larger works with empathy and respect for the women/AFAB people that I survey. I delve into the obscured and underlying suffering within the female psyche and body, particularly when grappling with medical issues. Through my art, I shed light on these struggles often concealed in the guise of solitude.

In my personal work, I aim to encapsulate my own torrential experience of being a young woman/girl in the 21st century. This is where I depict larger emotions as animalistic manifestations, eroding the pristine vessel that is the human body, and co-mingling the genitourinary systems on my subjects to create unity between them. Even my florals & urban-scapes are created with the intention of representing the gendered lens I use to view the world around me. Discomfort, unease, rage, shame, and anxiety are often present.
