“My creative practice bridges tactile mixed media canvases with raw, hand-sculpted clay to explore the enduring bonds of identity, history, and place. By embedding physical, heavy-ridge textures, worked wood, and textiles into my artwork, I chronicle the tangible realities of ancestral homelands alongside the emotional landscapes we carry within ourselves. Each piece serves as a living archive– an exploration of what it means to be deeply connected to a landscape, tracking how personal memories fade, shift, and endure over time.”
