Working at a scale and with materials akin to architectural models and miniaturists, I’m interested in creating fictional environments that question self-understanding and the impact of acting on the material world, while exploring the histories and ideologies embedded in constructed landscapes. These fantasy structures both enable and obstruct access, allude to themes of isolation, mediated communication, labor, leisure, and the absurd.
