Painters & Sculptors Grant, 2020
My work examines the connection of the past, present, and future and how it relates to personal rituals, cultural tradition, and iconography. Through forms and materials, I re-contextualize art and cultural mythologies from places far and near, and initiate visual dialogues that incorporate our shared history.”
