Mixed media collage

Choosing what to wear helps tell the story of who you are and gives voice to your ideas and aspirations. Adornment becomes performance. Statement. Protest. And even a surrender. My work reflects those choices through an artistic process akin to playing dress-up. I construct mixed media pieces layer by layer to build imagery that champions visibility and self-expression, while also demonstrating how style is a practice strengthened by the courage to try.
