Icon explores the transformation of the human figure into a distilled, symbolic presence. Through reduction, repetition, and controlled variation, these works move away from individual identity toward something more archetypal—where the figure operates as both image and sign. The result is a tension between recognition and abstraction, inviting a slower, more focused way of looking.
Pixels is a series of works which explore the ubiquity of photography in contemporary culture and the changing role this has played on individual experience. I refer to images as a way to peer into our collective experience in a fast-paced digital world. My process of composing works and layering paint calls attention to the divergent paths painting and photography have taken in the past century as fine art mediums.

Having lived in Europe for over a decade, time away from the ocean has shaped its presence as a kind of homecoming, alongside encounters with rivers and lakes where water moves in quieter, more measured ways. Movement, light, color, and the passage of time remain central throughout.
