Concept

My work examines the emotional, spiritual, and developmental fractures in family dynamics inflicted by war, trauma, the disintegration of family through migration, and loss. Taking a critical view at the influence that sociopolitical and cultural issues can have on emotionally impaired families, I often reference my own childhood, history, current events, and pop culture. Each work is constructed from an inventory of visual fragments such as: drawings, journal pages, photographs and found ephemera, arranged with bold colors, jagged line-work and abstract text patterns.d
