My practice explores painting as a process through which to negotiate memory, displacement, and becoming. Working through embodied and material methodologies, I use gesture, repetition, and colour to trace emotional and physical experience, allowing the surface to hold tensions between intimacy and violence, restraint and rupture. The work often hovers between emergence and dissolution, where gestures fail, fragment, or remain unresolved.

Central to my practice is the use of fabrics such as muslin cloth, materials associated with bodily care, birth, and protection, which I use to draw paint through the surface. Acting as both veil and skin, the fabric becomes a permeable membrane through which paint is absorbed, resisted, and transferred. Through this encounter between process, material, and surface, I seek to evoke embodied experience while exploring the unstable boundaries between repair and fracture.

Rooted in the landscapes of my childhood, the work engages with questions of belonging, fertility, and inherited trauma, allowing traces of removal, repetition, and emotional residue to remain embedded within the surface.
