About

These pieces were made during lockdown in 2020. I was weaving words and images together, exploring how they could build ideas. Passages from books I was reading became material alongside visual fragments.

The pieces emerged through short bursts of play, testing what happens when text and image collide, layer, refuse to align. The work was meditative — a way to think through form and language and meaning without needing it to resolve into something finished or conclusive. Each piece is an idea in process, a moment of exploration rather than a statement.
