Nice, 2026, polyester satin, silk, cotton twill, polyester velvet, hemp stuffing.
My practice stems from an instinct to notice and collect: objects, memories, sounds, and sentiments. I am drawn to represent ephemeral moments of unusual beauty, subtle and ironic juxtapositions between ideals and shortcomings, and absurd interruptions of decorative pattern. By accumulating and sorting representations of these moments into collections, I work across various media to create open-ended narratives.
