Lives and works in New York

Artist statement

I construct landscapes and spaces that reflect childhood, education, and aspiration in a post-digital 21st-century America using personal and public archives of video games, puzzles, software, clip art, and 3D models. Combining these found fragments with the patterns of printed or machine-woven fabrics, my paintings explore the narratives embedded in the images and textures of everyday life.
