 My work reimagines the stages of grief and the delicate interplay between life, death, anger, love, and loss. Despite my best efforts to remain vigilant in my vulnerability, there are multilayered universes within me, oozing at my seams and waiting to be unveiled. My exploration of these themes begins with parts of my own life journey, battling challenge after challenge, while also loving so fully I may burst at any time.

With these experiences in mind, I create fantastical narratives that bind together magic and realism, allowing for a more nuanced look at how I move through grief and joy within my own subconscious dreamscapes and the reality in front of me. I use bright pops of color and texture to loudly hold space for my multitudes and shine light on these complicated feelings.
