I create art to vocalize my greatest vulnerabilities and to discover the complex inner workings of relationships, identity, and self worth.

My mixed-media sculptural paintings crisscross the boundaries of the two-dimensional and the three-dimensional wall. The constant shift of material is simultaneous to my fixation for balance and stability. Through this, I conceptually examine how the psychological loss of identity can connect with the inability to be vulnerable.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration through my day-to-day life. Mainly through my relationships and observations of the people closest to me. I believe that a lot of my identity and fundamentals are built by the people I surround myself with. My experience with these relationships is what fuels the construction of my artwork.
