Interdisciplinary Arts and Writing

Frenetic, and often tainted by underworld journeys of the psyche, my practice communes with natural cycles of the Earth and invokes the transpersonal. I move, mark make, write, and create from an embodied raw state. Diving inward, I emerge generating compositions that draw the viewer in to their own abstract emotional landscape. I choose to explore the implications of life, death, and transformation to liberate myself. My lifelong drawing and painting practice has led me further into photography, installation, performance, writing and stop-motion animation. With research grounded in the lens of intersectional feminism, I generate work that mirrors personal and planetary healing and shifts humanity toward justice.
