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.

Much of my performance is durational and repetitive in action, 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.
