THE WORK
Created at the intersection of painting and sculpture, each piece is built layer by layer in plaster, resin, and acrylic on wood panel, turning the surface into tactile, three-dimensional relief.
The work explores interior life, identity, and womanhood. Each piece begins with something carried within: a feeling, a question, a belief. In the finished work, it becomes visible.

FROM THE STUDIO
Every piece has a story
Creating has never felt like something I do for myself; it feels like something I was made to give. Working with plaster, pigment, and whatever the piece asks for, every piece comes from my own becoming. My hope is that these physical forms find the people who need them, and that those who live with them feel a little more seen.
