My work traces the choreography of light on water, an ever shifting interplay of movement. I immerse myself in these spaces where the human figure is transformed by the fluid motion of the sea. In my paintings, figures appear submerged and fragmented, broken into patterns of light, reflection and shadows. 

The resulting works are less about capturing clarity and more about embracing disorientation, allowing the viewer to enter a space where their vision wavers. 

Extending these explorations three dimensionally - my ceramic sculptural series aims to create a dialogue about our current climate crisis. Bleached coral headdresses crown human figures that echo the fragility of dying reefs. Traditional Japanese tattoos are inked across their bodies, which speak to endurance and determination. Lifeless fish are scattered amongst them, symbolizing ecological collapse. The sculptures become monuments to loss and resilience. The future of our reefs depends on the choices we make now for our future generations.
