My work explores stillness as a form of presence. I paint large-scale, faceless figures—often women and girls—so they can be seen as universal rather than specific individuals. Removing facial identity shifts attention to posture, scale, color, and the feeling of simply existing in space.

I place these figures in environments that feel both familiar and suspended—water, contained environments, open fields of color, and imagined landscapes that exist between reality and imagined futures. I am interested in how the body holds memory, dignity, and silence, and how presence can be felt without being explained.

My work is about atmosphere rather than narrative. I use restraint—removing what is unnecessary—to let stillness, scale, and surface do the work. White brushstrokes, reflective surfaces, and simplified forms hold the figure in a quiet, constructed presence.
