My work explores the relationship between bodies and landscapes through a lens of ecological, emotional, and historical inquiry. I’m particularly interested in how environments carry memory, how they shape us, and how we project onto them. My paintings often depict surreal, immersive landscapes inhabited by female figures engaged in repetitive, impossible, or absurd tasks. These scenes ask how nature is experienced through the body, and how it’s historically been represented—especially in relation to myth, control, and the feminized body.

I often return to wetlands in my work, spaces that resist fixed definitions and operate on overlapping time scales. In my recent series, I focus on the marshlands of northeastern Massachusetts, where I grew up. These paintings depict the same landscape across different tidal moments, with figures cycling through the terrain in ways that suggest collapse and continuity across human, geologic, and tidal time. Marshes, for me, offer a metaphor for emotional and ecological transformation, places that hold both decay and renewal, memory and forgetting. Through painting, I aim to create a space where emotional resonance, ecological reality, and historical tension coexist, inviting viewers to reconsider their own relationships to the environments they move through.
