I work with art as a way of paying attention, not as a skill to perform or resolve. The work begins without a plan and ends when it no longer asks to be shaped.

I’m less interested in meaning than in what happens when attention stays long enough to soften its edges. The process is slow and deliberately unoptimized. What matters isn’t the outcome, but the conditions under which the work is made.

Some of this work lives quietly on the page. Some enters shared space through events. All of it comes from the same place: attention, allowed to remain without direction.
