CROSS-SECTIONS OF FRAGMENTED SENSUALITY • MAPPED, TRACED, AND UNFOLDED IN INTIMACY
Material Engagement
My work navigates the layered terrains of memory and perception, weaving painting, drawing, textiles, and photography into a visual cartography of experience. At its core lies the idea of estrangement as blueprint - invisible frameworks tracing the unseen architectures of mind, body, and place. Through tactile materials, I explore thresholds between intimacy and distance, presence and absence - liminal spaces where unbelonging and estrangement become forms of recognition, and difference is honoured without erasure.
Sensory Experience
Painted and stitched surfaces, woven textures, and photographic transfers become maps of shifting states - inscribed and dissolved in tactile form. These layers invite bodily resonance, where touch acts as a conduit for both connection and its absence. Emerging from a lifelong engagement with social ambiguity, my practice actively embraces negative capability: dwelling in uncertainty, suspension, and unfixity, where observation and listening become ways of inhabiting time. Each work opens onto a contemplative space - subtle, resonant, present - yet carrying the quiet power of full attentiveness within the unfolding complexity of life.
