Artist Statement: “In my work I create a unified folktale for myself; one that touches on my lineage, childhood, and relationships. I make humorous and exaggerated interpretations of my relationships and feelings towards my loved ones. Often touching on themes of queer yearning, connection, and small moments of beauty. I work in the interactive mediums of books and garments because I find these processes to be deeply satisfying in that someone has to physically touch, unfold, and uncover the object to understand the work. I believe that this interaction creates life in these inanimate objects. In all the mediums my work takes, I aim to create an experience of connection and magic with my viewer that conveys the love and wonder that my characters experience in their world.”
