In my work, I explore the way time and place alter personal identity. My practice establishes human connection through themes of loneliness, memory, and the everyday. I curate selections from my archive of collected photographs, writings, and items such as banana stickers and mailed envelopes, creating evidence of time spent in my own ordinary life. This compilation serves as a tangible record, meticulously capturing the passage of time.
By using various modes of artmaking such as printmaking, sculpture, and photography, I document the fluctuation of personal changes and relationships—with others, myself, and my surroundings. Through the sharing of these intimate records, my work interrogates the boundaries between the private and the public.
While I primarily focus on my individual feelings and experiences, I delve into shared emotional experience, making my work relatable to others and blurring the distinction between memory and reality for the viewer. Reconstructing my identity in objects and images allows me to linger in the certainty of the past, giving me the space to process the inevitable passing of time.
