My practice spans drawing, painting, and printmaking. At its core, it explores emotional nuance through layered imagery—peeling back the surface of the everyday to reveal unease, tenderness, and quiet strength. My figures exist in a liminal space between stillness and becoming, between care and rebellion. They are poetic vessels of strength, resilience, and vulnerability.

I’m drawn to the emotional resonance of line and form, using figures as conduits for lived experience. Rooted in an archival mindset and a reverence for drawing, my work seeks a balance between stillness and fluidity. There is often a subtle sense of resistance—a quiet liberation running through the work.

Rosalind Galt’s Pretty: Film and the Decorative Image has influenced my thinking deeply. She challenges how the critical elite devalues colour and decoration as mere prettiness—dismissed for being feminine or foreign. I’m not interested in upholding those outdated hierarchies. My practice embraces beauty and emotion as powerful tools of expression.

Ultimately, my work examines emotion and resilience. The figures and scenes I depict are armatures—structures for feeling. They are vessels for what I’ve lived and what connects me to others. Through the language of paint, I attempt to articulate the unspoken: the poetic, the psychological, the deeply human.
