My complicated identity as a mixed-race, white-passing, queer woman in America inspires much of my artwork. Through creation, I seek to break down gender constructs, reframe female sexuality, and amplify the perspectives of marginalized individuals. My work often includes commentary on gender roles and social issues, incorporating and reclaiming iconography typically associated with femininity. My works are often pink glitter dreamscapes of meticulous messes.
Whether through impromptu projects with my non-art major friends or the experimentation with mediums outside my expertise, I am committed to challenging the elitist, gate-kept nature of the traditional art community. My goal as an artist is to curate an atmosphere for creative magic; to help others develop their artistic identities by including those outside of the artistic realm, restructuring my work to contribute back to my community, and consistently questioning the intent behind my art.
