Paintings and Wall Sculptures
“Unveilings”
The “Unveilings” series explores what we reveal to the world, what we conceal from it, and the emotional consequences we experience. Layers of poured paint in varying degrees of opacity create texture and nuance, inviting you to look closer.
Fire-sculpted synthetic paper becomes graceful, withered, flora. There is beauty in all of nature—and all of us—as we are, imperfect and impermanent.
“Stone Roses”
The “Stone Roses” wall sculptures emerged from transforming materials and using them in untraditional ways. Fire-sculpted synthetic paper—an energy efficient, sustainably sourced, and tree-free substrate—creates elegant aged and weathered petals with swirls, curves, and openings.
Painted patina reflects the effect of natural elements over time and mimics metallic corrosion. These works are a celebration of wabi-sabi, a Japanese philosophy embracing the beauty of imperfection and impermanence in nature. Much like us, they embody strength and vulnerability.
