I thrive in collaborative environments, adapt quickly to new challenges, and am always eager to learn and innovate through both digital and physical making. My approach to graphic design is rooted in image making, with a fine art lens. I thrive when I can create imagery that not only fulfill a brief but become an object of its own. Process is the main way I explore my work. I take an inquisitive approach to making, often trying to combine materials and methods to create combinations of tradition and curiosity. I am drawn to the space between object and image, where the viewer finds themselves questioning what led me to each decision in the piece. Found objects are a common part of my practice as well. I often think about how art can be both an active event and a passive viewing. From a distance, my pieces may feel calm, but as you lean in, there are intricacies of the work that reveal themselves with attention. I want my work to invite people that question the world around them.born digitalStudent worksengCopyright and other restrictions may apply.
