The act of drawing is not merely an act of mark-making but an intimate encounter. The works that I create serve to arrest; they draw on the temporality of solitude yet ask of the viewer to remain fixated in their gaze. Movement corresponds to senses of unease and restlessness that follow desire: how desire, in itself, awakens a hunger of belonging to or with another body.
Drawing not only demands our visual focus but becomes a mirror that reflects what it wants us to become once we surrender to its seduction. My current work involves pouring, caressing, and massaging soaked photographs onto clean grounds of paper that result in dissolved representations of my drawing encounters.
