My practice exists at the intersection of anthropology, religion, and futurism, aiming to transcend the boundaries between the physical and the spiritual to create space for connection and higher consciousness. Ultimately, my work is a quest to explore, understand, and engage deeply with the spiritual topographies that exist. To collaborate with the mysticism of the land to generate tenderness, reciprocal healing, ways of connecting, seeing, and feeling as a means to overcome loss and trauma. I draw upon experiences both personal and collective and frequently incorporate salvaged remains as a way to explore materials as a metaphor for feeling and preserving narrative marks of time, weather, and human touch—its memory.
A long history of growing up in a DIY car culture, a family taken down by genetic diseases, my own battle with a degenerative condition, and a car crash that would impact my brain and body for life are the driving force behind much of my work. After the loss of my father, in my early adolescent years, my telepathic and intuitive abilities grew significantly, and furthermore after my car crash. I began to understand myself as a conduit and see my work as a vehicle for understanding this humbling and sensorial experience. This has led me to explore various modes of mediums where the process is as vital as the outcome, as I allow myself to be guided and intuitively respond. The ending results are often multi-aesthetic outcomes that take the shape of magnifying internal view finders, vessels, bodily impressions recorded from the landscape, meditations, and ephemeral earthworks.
