Relationship Mapping
This multimedia artwork weaves together vintage map imagery, markers, and acrylic paint on large-format canvases to explore the metaphor of human relationships as evolving landscapes. Just as maps chart changing terrains, the work traces how connections form, grow, thrive, diverge, or fade over time. The vintage maps provide a foundation, that suggests history and memory, while layered gestures of paint and markings evokes emotional pathways, intersections, and ruptures. Through this fusion of mediums, the pieces reflect the complexity and impermanence of human bonds and the emotional cartography of connection.
Widgets
This series emerges from over 1,000 pen-and-ink drawings created in professional notebooks between 2020 and 2022, much of it during the isolation and uncertainty of the COVID pandemic. These works—assembled into intricate collages and expanded into large-format paintings—delve into the territory between casual mark-making and intentional expression.
With a focus on simple line and a restrained use of color, Widgets examines the intellectual, psychological, and emotional layers embedded in images made while the mind was partially elsewhere—during meetings, conversations, and daily work.These drawings act as windows into moments in time, revealing the subconscious traces of thought, feeling, and perception.
Wordchimes
WordChime was a participatory art installation created through a community workshop held in August 2022, at the Jamestown Arts Center with over 40 local participants. Each person inscribed a wooden panel with two single words—one capturing a personal thought, memory, or activity from the pandemic years of 2020–2021, and another projecting a hope, vision, or anticipated experience for the future. Individually, the panels represented intimate records of change; together, they formed a collective portrait of the community’s passage through an extraordinary moment in history. Suspended in the open air, the panels moved with the wind, producing a gentle chime that echoed the interconnected experiences, resilience, and shared transformation of all who took part.
