Through the metaphor of the tree I inquire how experiences of home and place are stored and imprinted inside of us. In 2020 I began exploring this concept of home and the idea of the family tree as a portal to a personal cosmos in my art. What happens to a tree when it is transplanted from its original soil?
Through the fragmenting, layering, and juxtaposition of my photographic images, printed on a range of materials such as paper and acetate, monochrome and color, reflective and opaque surfaces, I invite viewers to look deeper into the layers upon which we build our lives. This process mirrors my exploration of the quiet poetic tension between past and present, nature and artifice, freedom and confinement, clarity and ambiguity.
For me, memories and experiences are imprinted deep within us, flowing through the mind and body like living roots that form intricate personal codes and symbols. These unseen maps are mystical, layered, and ever-evolving, guiding my creative process and my continual search for meaning, belonging, and transcendence through art.
My aspiration is to evoke a deep longing for inner and outer space, freedom, solace and contemplation. The colored geometrical forms act as windows, that open up to the vast sky, where plants or trees can flourish by breaking through the black and white, confined, urban concrete. The final work is positive in nature, inspired by the resilience some plants have to grow in limiting or inhospitable conditions: A metaphor for Life.
