My primary material is biodegradable recycled paper blended from found books and cardboard, using location specific found materials that are abundant, free, and compostable. Topography, enzymatic bodily processes, abstraction, printmaking, sustainability, and nature are my visual influences, and my work is process based.
I'm interested in digestion because it is analogous to paper making through breaking down and transforming material, as well as images, printed matter, and diagrams related to feminism, gender identity, new age spirituality, and climate information.
My installations are not very archival and are susceptible to the humidity in the environment. Using paper like a building material, I hope to make things that are mostly temporary, and can be re-processed into the next thing or composted.
