Inheritances Statement
Despite a growing sense of futility, I still feel an
atmospheric pull to try and tie the air back together, to weave something
honest and grounding where I am. As a
global citizen, I’m disoriented. As an
artist, I’m fighting off becoming numb, endeavoring to confront the weight of
distance through the litany of my sculptural practice. Works in Inheritancesare recent landings, results of my attempts to articulate tangles with
expectation—the tensions, apathies, and melancholy lingering just below a surface
of restraint.
These fixed collisions of tactile memory exist at the boundary of self
and environment. They are product(s) of hand-me-down materiality: broken limbs,
cracked foundations, décor of domesticity, and the language stitched into the
seams of my history. In the white noise of my fingers, I’m stitching together
fractured time. Time lost, time neglected, and time that may only be felt or
dreamt as blue skies on the horizon
