My work over the past year directly engages the space of what it is to be between places- specifically the experience of the transient, the displaced and the uprooted. Each piece frames a portrait of separation in which place and belonging mix with apparitions of desire. My affinity with material transformation in this body of work centers on issues of fragility and fortification, recasting objects associated with house and home as symbolic agents of crisis.
