I am a mixed-media artist whose work addresses the emotional and existential impacts of our collective humanity. My work revolves around the figure as proxy. From matriarchal or androgynous ceramics to performance with attire and custom cars, these are links to empowered identities and cultures. I create hard-working utilitarian concepts—tools of change and of self-reflection. By honoring process, my work intends to cure.”
