I am making art rooted in personal questions about how everyone grows up to be so drastically different in every way. Wondering if there are ties, pin points that I can discover to unravel a family history and make it all make sense. Maybe there was one day that changed everything.

I am primarily a weaver, who works from the traditions of craft and subverting the use of weaving to be a physical marker of time, loss and the emotive experience of labor. I am creating works that have accidents and mistakes caused by the duration of weaving and the flawed nature of the human mark.

Birth order, trauma, death, substance abuse passed on through generations, socioeconomic status and single parent households are just some of the topics that I have researched to great depths for my art. With my work, and research I am hoping to invoke the feelings of isolation that I so often felt as a middle child as well as entice conversation and analysis of everyday interactions and relationship dynamics.
