Artist Statement
My practice moves between painting, lens-based work, sound, and experimental film, tracing the delicate thresholds where perception shifts. I work within moments that resist narrative—the interludes between gestures, where time becomes porous and presence lingers. These fragments—of light, breath, shadow, and resonance—are not merely observed; they are held, suspended, and transformed into sensory architecture.
Painting and film operate as parallel frames in my process. A painting becomes a condensation of movement and feeling; a film, an unfolding of time that cannot be measured by sequence alone. Both seek to capture what cannot be named—the transient humanness of being.
Sound, for me, is not accompaniment but an equal presence, shaping how an image is felt, how space expands, how time slows. My installation In C5, which premiered at the Banff Centre for the Arts, used tonal frequency to construct an environment where sound became a tactile field—a space one could enter rather than simply hear.
The films linger between everything and nothing, revealing the weight of seemingly inconsequential moments. They are less about telling stories than about holding a state—where seeing becomes sensing, where meaning is found in the pause before language forms.
Ultimately, my work is a search for presence—not as an ideal, but as a fleeting condition of experience. It invites viewers to dwell in the unmeasured, to inhabit the thresholds where time bends, where nature mirrors our transience, and where connection appears—quietly, momentarily, and without explanation.
