My work explores themes of collective struggle and uncertainty in the presence of a shattered, unforgiving world. I am fascinated with the way that labor and pain can resonate through history, and shape the memory of the past, as well as the direction of the future. I attempt to connect fragments of a shared melancholy through visceral interactions, images, and experiences that evoke a common human fear, longing, and desperation. With my work, I hope to express a deeply felt emotion that language fails to describe.
