this is me, be no one else

I see my work as a journey to find out who I am. This journey takes me across multiple mediums without settling on one in particular. I view it as a personal device that I have not quite figured out. Process is what draws me in the most and is usually more rewarding than the final piece. My work is about psychological themes that resonate universally but also about my own idiosyncrasies. It is based on my dissatisfaction of myself and the struggles that I go through to come to terms with the person I am. This is accomplished through the exploration of emotions, fragility, and circumstance.

The life of Miss Always Invisible

i've begun to build monuments around every breath that you left for me to find and every daisy will die in an effort to find out if i'm on your mind. i make believe what you would say if you were here. it's all just pretend anyway. the stories in my head repeat again and again until i start to believe in them. i wish that you thought that i could do great things, that you didn't ever want to slow me down. i looked for you when i learned to use my wings, but you were no where to be found. I don't know the feeling of your sweet arms, it could have been the best time that i've known. maybe the reason that i was here was to watch you go. i wish i could have been someone to you, but you were meant for something better. it doesn't matter that you don't know who i am, cause she, and not me, will always be part of your history.
