STATEMENT
I am a Brooklyn-based artist exploring vulnerability through work that moves between photography and sculpture. Through my practice, I give form to invisible states of being—subtle conditions that waver between tenderness and strength, presence and absence.
I begin by photographing those closest to me—my family, friends, and lovers—in quiet, organic moments, often when they are unaware of the camera. These photographs hold a still, subtle immediacy—so precise in their detail that they verge on exposure. They capture intimate, unguarded glimpses of those I hold close. I print these images onto layers of organza, and by layering the printed fabric, I seek a gentle balance between protection and revelation—softening what feels too exposed while allowing the essence to remain.
The sheer fabric becomes a membrane—protective yet revealing. Its lightness and fluid translucency convey fragility, while its quiet resilience suggests strength. Through layering, stretching, draping, stitching, and shaping the organza, I create subtle distortions that blur the line between opposing states—visibility and concealment, exposure and intimacy, delicacy and resilience, intimacy and distance. Within this tension, the image begins to breathe, shifting from photograph to object, from surface to form.
I believe that life is a continuous process of noticing, accepting, and gently resisting one’s own vulnerability. My work—whether capturing, layering, or shaping—is an attempt to attune to this rhythm. Each gesture becomes a quiet way to trace the delicate landscape within.
