Prints

The issues of vulnerability and awkwardness are at the core of my work. When creating two-dimensional imagery, I choose processes and materials that emphasize these concerns. I use various printmaking techniques; most often using etching and relief processes. By contrasting the fragility of thin Japanese papers with the physicality and dense ink saturation of etching, I am able to reinforce the emotional tone in my work.
