INSTALLATION ARTIST

My work speaks to those who navigate life in-between; individuals shaped by transcultural displacement, Third Culture Kids (TCKs), transplants, the displaced, expatriates, the diaspora, outsiders, newcomers, foreign born, and anyone who has felt foreign in familiar places. These are the core communities I speak to: people who resonate with the experience of being "neither here, nor there," who negotiate belonging daily. At the same time, I welcome audiences who may not share this background but are curious about identity, home, and how material and memory intersect.

Beyond the immediate viewers of my installations, my work resonates with cultural theorists, sociologists, and educators concerned with migration, identity, and global interconnection. I see my work as contributing to broader conversations about how we carry, lose, and reconstruct our senses of self across borders. In particular, I hope my work resonates in art spaces, academic environments, and public dialogues about cultural hybridity and impermanence.

My installations often invite physical presence and contemplation, and thus, exhibition in galleries, museums, and site-specific settings are key to reaching audiences. I am equally interested in residencies and public programming that foster conversation, talks, workshops, or participatory moments that expand the dialogue beyond the visual. Given the ephemeral nature of my work, thoughtful documentation (photography, video, publication) extends its reach and allows for engagement across time and distance.

Ultimately, I aim for my work to offer space; for feeling, questioning, and connecting. If it makes someone pause to consider where they belong, or how others might experience belonging differently, then it has done its work.
