My hand-embroidered paintings explore the sublimity of intimate moments that bridge human connection, solitude, and our relationship to the natural world. I translate lived experience and memory into a symbolic, sacred, and often dreamlike metaphysical realm. I am interested in how memories soften, distort, and accumulate meaning over time, eventually functioning as malleable objects and archetypes through which larger, universal themes can be explored.
I often repurpose vintage textiles as my canvases, all handmade by previous generations, and I regard this process as a collaboration across time between artists and craftswomen. Texture and color are psychological forces within my work, used to emphasize moods and atmospheres, resulting in images that appear familiar yet otherworldly. These liminal spaces produced in delicate thread become a folkloric, almost archaeological, remnant of a life.
