Resiliency From Growth

The foundation of my work reflects the resiliency that occurs from growth. I am interested in growth in nature, cycles of life, and the human experience. I often reflect upon shapes found in nature, the female form, and the dance between them. I am also intrigued by the growth of human life and motherly nurturing.

We grow to live and grow to die. It is inevitable, and we can choose to embrace the life changes that bring this upon us and expand with them or limit the natural process. Every living thing is in the process of growth, as it is the one thing that never changes. My work often has flowing lines engulfed around the other as though they are grown together because we can not escape the change that occurs but can lean into the shape and move with it. My journey of personal growth has helped me create new lines and movements, which I often reflect on in my work.
