Ecofeminist paintings of the unseen threads of consciousness.
Biografía
My work moves between two themes: the spiritual exploration of human existence through a mythical lens, and an ecofeminist, socio-political response to the environmental and systemic violence shaping our world today. My ongoing Goddess Portrait series is rooted in archetypes of different goddess mythologies around the world where I seek to reveal the hidden layers of identity, resilience, and consciousness, elevating real women into portals of divine power manifested in human form. These works seek to honor the sacred within the human and mundane, bridging personal history with collective memory through symbolic language. Parallel to this, my practice also confronts the trauma inherent in our current systems where I address the pressures of capitalism and the environmental degradation experienced as well as the emotional and spiritual costs of a world which is out of balance. Together, these two artistic explorations form a single inquiry: how do we thrive, transmute, and create meaning in the midst of our perpetually changing world?
Enfoque artístico
My artistic approach is rooted in the belief that mythology can serve as a living language through which we can understand the complexities of the present. I weave together symbolism, archetype, personal experience, and socio-political realities to create works that invite reflection. I seek to create images that exist between the visible and the invisible, where contemporary events resonate with timeless narratives.
Técnicas y soportes
My practice combines primarily drawing and painting. Although I have been known to do some collage and mixed-media assemblage. I work mainly with acrylic and graphite, although sometimes I use found objects and reclaimed materials which inspire me. Media is selected based on the intention of the piece.
