Artist's Statement:

My work is a vibrant exploration of color, form, and emotional resonance, achieved through the interplay of collage, acrylic paint, and pastels. Focusing on abstract compositions, I emphasize color translucency to evoke a sense of serenity and joy amidst the chaotic rhythms of contemporary culture.

Inspired by diverse landscapes and the dynamic nature of our modern world, my art serves as a meditative response to the tumultuous environment around us. Each piece is an experiment in balancing color and form, aiming to offer a quiet sanctuary and a moment of introspective calm.

Having initially studied sculpture during my MFA at Pratt Institute, where I crafted large-scale works, I turned to painting as a means to overcome a period of creative block. This shift allowed me to explore the subtleties of scale and impact, resulting in intentionally small works that challenge the viewer's perception of significance and presence.

Through my art, I seek to translate the intricate beauty of nature and human experience into visual expressions that inspire tranquility and introspection, while continually exploring the nuanced relationships between color and composition.
