statement.

My performance, print, and site-specific-installation-based practice explores memory, the intersection of isolation & intimacy, and gendered societal expectations placed on women. Throughout my practice, I look to create a space for personal and communal reflection.

My work is driven by repetitive and time-consuming actions, taking as its basis, my own struggles with obsessive thoughts and compulsive tendencies, and finding from it connection and transformation through recurrence.

Through the lens of societal expectations, I often use materials informed by traditional women’s domestic craft. Through the use of these, I interrogate the relationships formed between women, especially during the traditional female customs of laboring and ritualizing together. These practices often lead me to work collaboratively with other artists and communities.
