My interdisciplinary practice investigates the social and linguistic constructs that shape identity, history, and collective memory in the United States.
MessageWithout Knowing How evokes the feeling of navigating systems that one cannot fully grasp. A recessed paper composition glows faintly, framed within layers that suggest portals or thresholds. At the bottom, a chrome bathroom fixture interrupts the formal clarity—an object of function repurposed into metaphor. The title speaks to uncertainty, to the quiet persistence of moving forward despite confusion. Here, minimalism meets mystery, and intuition becomes a tool of construction.
