Growing Pains 2026
Growing up brings understated discomforts. 
Changes in the figure throughout life, self-perception, and the topic of women's bodies in society are not gentle, but conflicting and confusing. 
The beads and stitch, reflects the hours spent sewing my ballet attire, carefully creating something that "would fit and move with me perfectly".
Solvents, scraping, and glazing depict the rough, eating away sensation that comes with striving for perfection. The surreal compositions convey tensions of never fully grasping how we appear within the larger world—evoking a discomfort between reality and perception. 
As I paint, I look directly into the reflection of the years that have passed, and those still to grow.
My arms now perform to paint.
