SOPHIA 35" x 57" Mixed Media - canvas, Xerox gum transfer, oil pastels, thread 2023.

This work focuses on and relates to the body as our means of inhabiting the world; it is the vessel through which we experience both external and internal worlds, our relationships to other bodies, human and otherwise, our primordial means of expressing ourselves, and consequently finding, or creating, meaning. Through this work, I attempt to amplify the body's unique ways of 'knowing,' to pull out the hermetic light from within in order to illuminate that sensual uncanniness of existence.
