My practice transcribes daily experiences through abstraction as an act of feeling and imagining innerwise. Here “inner–” refers to irreducible spaces necessary for refusing, living, or imagining. "From A to B" (2019) is a tapestry of recycled bodega bags that considers the resourceful approaches to survival that I observed at home in Marion and Selma, Alabama. It is a record of my fascination with the lifespan of a seemingly disposable material, and how I think about creating within a fine arts canon largely dependent on collectability and reduction. The plastic also acts as a marker of consumerism and class status. My use of plastic and its volatile nature gestures to domesticity, travel, and survival. The material, under pressure of heat as I paint and sculpt it, undergoes an intense transformation yet endures. It lives. Other works, such as "Dats Real Cute" (2019), act as “quiet images,” or transmitters of low sonic frequencies that encourage haptic experiences instead of a reliance on the visual. To this end, resolution becomes a material that opposes the cursory glance, waging a polarizing fight for and against the attention of whomever engages the work.
