My art practice challenges social and linguistic constructs in the United States through precisely crafted artworks organized into collections.
MessageA small framed composition clings to the lower right corner of an expansive white field, evoking absence more than presence. Almost overlooked, the diminutive image feels like a relic—part diagram, part wound—its lines radiating from a red core like memory tethered to grief. The surrounding space amplifies its emotional weight, creating a tension between intimacy and distance, visibility and erasure. This is not a portrait of what was, but a meditation on what barely remains.
