“Houses, trees, neighborhoods… I love to inventory a place, taking careful note of small hints, reminders of the lived day; umbrellas set out to dry, or laundry hanging, a bicycle parked, a garland in a window… these little suggestions nudge me to thread them into my own quiet narratives.”

“My work looks at cycles of construction and destruction. I reference locations where the stakes of this struggle are high: flood zones, areas of fire, and vulnerable shelters.”

“ Drawing is the bone structure of my work to give shape to my thoughts, imagination or daydreams. Painting, on the other hand, emphasizes what I want to say by using a variety of paint applications to form an expression.”

“These two works were done in the depths of quarantine. The landscapes are of nowhere in particular, but rather a meditation on a place with no time, logical space, or habitable weather conditions. I think of the details of clashing paint, hypnotic fluidity, and urgent strokes as narrators of the backdrop they depict.”

“Many of my paintings look at the ways humans intervene in the landscape to build our homes, as well as the ways the land can reclaim these spaces. Nature itself has been the most important reference in my recent work.”
