I’m processing my emotions through art.

Themes

I draw a lot of inspiration from processing my own emotional journey, observing, and playing with colors, light, and shadow.

RISE AND CelebratE

My work celebrates assertion and awareness as a way to improve quality of life. I aim to focus on the abundance, harmony, and spiritual connection that I want to enjoy and share.

Everyday Wonder

My art tends to act as autobiographical narrations of pivotal moments in my life, documenting fleeting presence, and connecting me with my feelings.

Nature and Spirit

I make a lot of self portraits examining my personal identification with nature; viewing myself, trees and landscapes as symbols of spirituality, stamina, strength, and nurturing.

Justice IS KEY

I explicitly use my work as a call to action and a symbol of gratitude for community.

My practice is deeply tied to my surroundings in New York City,

and wherever I go, always intertwined with my interests in social justice and mental health.

Artist Statement:

I respectfully acknowledge the Lenape people and all traditional owners of the territories where I walk, live, and create. I pay my respects to all First Nations elders past, present, and emerging.

My work reveals the duality of personal identity, navigating the space between community and isolation.

IMy creative practice is an act of imagination and resistance. I make a lot of autobiographical art as a practice of healing and a mirror to our times.

My values are woven into my work. As a grandchild of Nazi holocaust survivors and daughter of an immigrant, I always stand with people. I carry a deep moral obligation to denounce fascism and genocide, and to support survivors.

I advocate for social justice and human rights, in solidarity with those who are oppressed, and against the exterminations in Gaza, Congo, Sudan, and Yemen.

I harmonize with resistance to oppression.

My practice is dedicated to:

MUTUAL AID
Active community care
ABOLITION
Dreaming of a world where we compost the prison industrial complex

DECOLONIZATION
Supporting Land Back initiatives and reparations for Indigenous and Black communities

GLOBAL LIBERATION
Resisting colonialism, imperialism, and settler occupation

INTERSECTIONALITY
Uplifting the sacredness of trans and queer lives
