Wallpaper collage with acrylic—building form through layered pattern and paint.
Where do you find inspiration?I draw from scientific illustration, vintage wallpaper, and the body—spine, rib cage, hands—as well as birds. Using pattern and structure, I explore how form holds life, then loosens and dissolves into atmosphere.
What would you do with $25,000?Invest in materials and work at a larger scale, and build a patio off my studio—an outdoor space to work, think, and experiment.
