About the Artist

Time, an enigmatic force, shapes our existence in profound ways. Its intricacies, both vast and minute, are a testament to the universe's inherent complexity.

In my artistic practice, I engage with time through the act of repetition of form, collecting, documenting, gathering artifacts and cataloging experiences and people. These objects are imbued with intimate daily actions, serving as tangible markers of my own passage through time. Repetition in form and action serves as my personal metronome through my artistic journey.

In summary, my art embodies my beliefs about time, collective experience, and the human body as a personal dialogue with the universe. It serves as a testament to the intricacies of existence, offering a glimpse into a sole person's life experience as a mirror to the shared journey of understanding and connection that defines our humanity.
