The long version:

I am a multidisciplinary artist whose work explores memory, intimacy, and connection through lens-based media, intimate performance, textiles and print, often overlapping one another. Through this, I explore memory - its creation and disintegration, as well as connection, both individual and collective. My photographic and print work often searches for pattern and visual texture, while my performance work is similarly driven by repetitive and time-consuming actions, all taking as the basis my own struggles with OCD. I strive to find transformation in reiteration, as well as to highlight momentary noticings, making space for personal and communal reflection. With nearly two decades working in community engagement, I center vulnerability and cultural exchange in both artistic and professional practice.

 

My work is shaped by the transformational experiences of living away from my native New York in France, Germany, Taiwan, and Scotland (thus far), helping me examine the liminal space between loneliness and interconnection. I hold a Master's degree from Glasgow School of Art (2019), where I deepened my exploration of personal and collective narratives. My art seeks to capture fleeting moments, making them resonate with lasting emotional presence.

The short:

I am a multidisciplinary artist and community engagement facilitator.
