My work dwells in loss having as starting point a traumatized, female body — present in some works, dissolved in others.The practice traces grief as a recurring condition. The body does not always appear. It exists in the process: in pressure, in erosion, in the way the work shifts as trauma distances itself and returns more conscious, more inhabited. Working between painting, mixed media, and monotype, I use materials that absorb, tear, and resist. Forms are cut and reassembled not to restore what was, but to record its dissolution. What emerges moves between the attempt to hold something and the acknowledgment that it is already gone. Each work is an almost daily record of this condition. The series remains an incomplete attempt at reformulating a self that continues to be shaped by absence.
