My research examines mechanisms of power and solidarity, investigating how these forces operate within social, environmental, and institutional systems. Much of my work explores concepts of stewardship, both of one another and the land we inhabit. The news and current events are my primary influences. Because this is such a large topic my work develops in groupings of prints that are thematically related and allow me to dive deeper into specific areas.
I love to play and I think this is an integral part of what it means to be human. Printmaking is central to my practice because it is an inherently playful media full of surprise, experimentation, and iteration. Its physical and time-intensive nature keep me closely connected to the work, while the multiplicity of print enables images and ideas to shift over time. I often return to and repurpose existing matrices, allowing portions of earlier work to evolve into new things.
I enjoy playing with what is seen and unseen, what is hidden and what is revealed.
