My latest series is about the transformative journey of healing after personal loss. I draw on nature and memory to create dimensional works on paper that give physical form to abstract concepts and feelings such as hope, joy, resilience, and wonder; each layer embodies the multitude, depth, and complexity of emotions felt during the healing process. While there can be moments of sadness, I focus on the moments of peace, joy, and beauty in my work.

I am drawn to paper as it is a very understated and resilient material. It can be fragile and delicate but also strong and sturdy. For each handmade piece of artwork, I carve hundreds and thousands of precise cuts. I design, paint, cut, and arrange various shapes and colors as if I am piecing together a puzzle. Each shape, line, and color is a hint, trace, and impression of nature, memory, and a transformative future.
