I am drawn to the thresholds that separate and connect us. The dancefloor, for instance, embodies transformation—a site of queer belonging, freedom, and playful defiance. Play is vital in resisting a world increasingly hostile to trans and queer identities. To feel safe is to be able to play and create, and my work aspires to cultivate these spaces of possibility. This ethos extends into my practice, where I explore large-format wheatpaste and light-based installations in atypical spaces, engaging with shadows, margins, mischief, and play as acts of resistance. Rooted in a longing to express experiences of in-betweenness and exclusion while simultaneously activating and expanding marginalized spaces, my work takes shape through devious and promiscuous visual motifs, materials, and processes. I draw with analogue and digital implements, then combine and transduce the layers into new forms, sparking a sense of unbound transformation and movement.
