Gesso on canvas

the director of the film adaptation Luchino Visconti

Looking closely at the evolution of the self

of patterns found in domestic clutter and material accumulation serve as conceptual and graphic structures

She crouches beside the wheel

Consider waking one morning without any sense

and paper pulp

But the Mekong has needed protection too

Etching the pain into his face as he looks at me

Surfaces embellished with beading and embroidery reference craft traditions long marginalized in the history of art

and what it may mean to be an individual within the many

this piece is about the random and unexpected connections to others that we made during the pandemic as we shared common experiences
