Specializing in painting and drawing throughout receiving their BFA at the University of Ottawa, the artist depicts narratives of solastalgia on ephemeral surfaces using frenetically-applied oils. They draw parallels between conversations of contemporary feminist, social, and environmental issues using encroaching urban | domestic imagery.

She seeks someplace quiet to introspect and hopes viewers find her practice as a waypoint in their own voyage towards persistent revelations - one complete with perils, euphorias, delays, and abnormal interventions. Though, holding the belief that the art she makes does not contain one single finality to leave viewers content, she considers her work a site for contemplation, questioning, and knowledge sharing.

As an observer, collector, and researcher into the pleasures, horrors, 'nones,' and 'alls' of human experience, I hope my results reveal humorous, disgusting, spiritual, and used aspects overlapping our mundane world. Myths devoid of reason and folklore without moralities reconcile as variations of myself converse and play.

 

Remember me fondly, and my work? Monstrously.

*The city of Thunder Bay where I currently live and work is located on the territory of Anishinaabe of Northwestern Ontario and the land of the Fort William First Nation; Ottawa, where I went for school, is located on un-ceded territory of the Anishinabe Algonquin.

I intend to use my life as a guest to this body and land to learn how to be a better friend, stranger, and in-betweener.
