My work explores memory, disappearance, and the fragile structures that remain after images begin to fail. Working across drawing, collage, photography, installation, and experimental processes, I investigate how surfaces carry evidence of time, absence, and transformation.
“Everything Remembers”
2024-present
Found photographs, encaustic wax, plaster, graphite, mixed media.
Everything Remembers is an ongoing body of work that examines memory as a physical force rather than a simple act of recollection. Using found photographs, drawing, collage, installation, and material processes of erasure and reconstruction, these works explore how personal and collective histories persist even as their original forms begin to disappear. Each piece considers how images change over time, carrying evidence of touch, absence, repair, and transformation.
“After the Photograph”
2022-2024
Found photographs, digital collage, mixed media.
After the Photograph explores the instability of photographic memory through digitally altered found images. Organic forms interrupt familiar scenes, shifting photographs away from documentation and toward interpretation. Rather than preserving the past, these works examine how memory is continually reshaped by time, emotion, and imagination, allowing ordinary images to become unfamiliar and open to new meanings.
“After Bloom”
(the floral series)
2023-2025
Personal “Hook-Up” photographs, Hand painted floral, digital collage, archival pigment prints.
After Bloom combines found photographs with botanical imagery to examine memory, transformation, and the passage of time. Floral forms obscure and reveal the photographs beneath them, creating layered images that exist between preservation and change. The work considers how memories continue to evolve long after the moment they depict, accumulating new associations while never remaining entirely fixed.
“Untitled Interiors”
2024
Nikon analog camera, childrens digital camera Photography,archival pigment prints.
This series photographs mass-produced plastic dollhouses as architectural spaces rather than children's toys. Cropped, reframed, and lit as full-scale interiors, these miniature environments become containers for memory, projection, and absence. By elevating disposable objects into sites of contemplation, the work asks how even imagined domestic spaces can carry emotional weight.
Household Memory
2024
found photo, childrens plastic dollhouse,Digital photography
Using double exposure, photographs of plastic dollhouses merge with portraits and found imagery to create layered domestic landscapes. The house becomes both architecture and body, functioning as a metaphor for memory, identity, and belonging. Rather than illustrating specific narratives, these images explore how ideas of home are shaped by recollection, projection, and emotional experience.
