My practice operates at the intersection of environmental data, climate patterns, and abstract materiality. I view my work as a form of speculative translation, where the rigid structures of meteorological models and geological charts are deconstructed and rebuilt into dynamic visual narratives. By engaging with the weather systems and waterways, I aim to foster a deeper reflection on the human experience within an increasingly volatile natural world.
I am particularly interested in the "experimental processing" of information. Rather than illustrating scientific data literally, I treat it as a framework for abstraction. My work conveys the tension between the perceived permanence of land and the fluidity of atmosphere. Through layered murals and large-scale paintings, I invite viewers to navigate these "visual weather patterns," prompting an awareness of our ecological footprint and the unseen forces shaping our environment.
Ultimately, my work aims to express a sense of atmospheric urgency. It bridges the gap between the macro-scale of global climate shifts and the micro-scale of local topography. By translating complex systems into a tactile, abstract language, I provide a space for the viewer to contemplate their own relationship with nature—not as a distant observer, but as a participant in a fragile, evolving ecosystem.
A significant shift in my recent practice is the move toward a circular, material-conscious methodology. My current work emphasizes processual experimentation with recycled materials, specifically deconstructing industrial and domestic waste to create three-dimensional sculptures and installations.
I do not view the use of "found" materials as mere repurposing, but as a formal game of transformation. By taking discarded or "destroyed" materials and giving them new life, I mirror the natural cycles of erosion and regeneration found in our geology. This physical engagement with waste—most recently explored during my residency at KC Recology—allows me to challenge the hierarchy of materials while grounding my abstract imagery in tangible environmental reality. The resulting works are dense, tactile, and layered, reflecting both the complexity of human-made waste and the resilience of natural systems.
