STATEMENT
I make art that explores identity, joy, rebellion, and everyday life in the social margins of the Caribbean. I create work that represents agency in both urban and rural landscapes.
Working across painting, sculpture, and film, I treat materials as memory agents. Using acrylic as my primary medium in painting, I incorporate sand, charcoal, and construction debris as residues of labor and infrastructure, indexing histories of extraction, precarity, and survival. In sculpture and film, I extend this approach through the use of found materials, reinforcing a material language rooted in accumulation, reuse, and lived environments. Through this material vocabulary, my work collapses distinctions between the symbolic and the physical, highlighting how environments are both constructed and internalized.
