The work is a visual exploration of form, margins, grief, and everything in between. Using language, abstraction, and iconographic figuration these objects work to illustrate delicate contemplations we often keep to ourselves. Using both traditional and found material elements; The combination of sewn fabric, objects, painted and printed information have become crucial to articulate a myriads of feelings. Where coded language, patterns, and layered images cut up and sewn back together attempt to address identity beyond its superficial grail. The artworks are bright, playful, noisy, and commanding. Blending recognizable pop culture imagery with collaged, headstrong, jittery, and ambitious ways of making. Working hard to be understood, and working even harder to be enigmatic.
