Utilizing simple materials, my work examines the inscape of the human spirit and the liminal space that exists between sensing and understanding. As we traverse interior terrain that's dark and seemingly insurmountable at times, our paths are illuminated by the embers of love and grace that we offer one another...and ourselves. The art I've recently made has served as a witness statement for the chronic sorrow that accompanies monumental loss, the glimmers of hope that deliver us from trauma, and the energy that connects, envelops, and heals us. The marks I make are gestures of empathy; indexical marks of solidarity for the relatable experiences we all face each day. They are also radical acts of sanity, imperative as I navigate the overwhelming nature of a world where I feel absolute smallness, yet undeniable belonging. By conjuring and obscuring biomorphic shapes with dry and water media, I make drawings that transport viewers into these imagined realms of liminal psychological space. As I work intuitively, my drawing process becomes a responsive gesture, with each new mark reacting to the last. A lifeline that connects me to something beyond and within myself, my art practice is a meditation on the wonder that accompanies our beautifully finite human experience.
