Title: Remembering me, Rememebring Me
Medium: Mixed media collage – Digital collage of paint, sketches and drawings
This piece is a visual exploration of identity, perception, and transformation — a dialogue between the internal and external self. It brings together digital collage, hand-drawn sketches, and symbolic organic forms to blur the boundaries between self-portraiture and abstraction.
The layered composition represents the fragmented nature of the self — how we are made up of multiple identities, memories, and influences. The two central faces, partly obscured by vivid textures and surreal elements, reflect both concealment and revelation. The blue and yellow gestures across their features act as emotional veils — barriers and expressions at once — hinting at what is seen versus what is felt.
The sketched figures and faces at the bottom recall the process of artistic observation, the act of seeing and being seen. They appear like echoes or past selves, each carrying a distinct expression or persona. Meanwhile, the organic forms — red fruits, bird, floral motifs — introduce elements of vitality and growth, suggesting transformation through nature and creativity.
The color palette — earthy browns and golds contrasting with electric purples, blues, and reds — evokes tension between grounded reality and dreamlike imagination. Overall, the work reads as a psychological landscape, a self-portrait not of appearance, but of multiplicity — of the many ways we construct and deconstruct who we are.
Title: [Untitled or suggestive title — e.g. “Echo Line” or “The Conversation Between Selves”]
Medium: Digital Animation, Mixed Media Collage
Curatorial Description:
This work explores the porous boundaries between self and other, memory and communication. Through a fusion of hand-drawn portrait sketches and digital gesture, the artist constructs a dialogue between identities suspended in an abstract, ochre-toned space. The looping orange line—simultaneously connective and constrictive—links two fragmented figures, suggesting the transmission of thought, emotion, or influence.
Within the central circular frame, overlapping faces emerge as layers of identity: smiling, solemn, introspective. Their coexistence within a single contour evokes the fluidity of the inner self, while the figure on the right appears both observer and participant—caught in the exchange between interior and exterior worlds.
The minimal composition, punctuated by a floating, metallic form in the corner, intensifies the psychological atmosphere of the piece. The work feels at once intimate and distant—an abstract portrait of how individuals communicate through perception, projection, and memory.
In this animation, movement becomes metaphor: each loop a repetition of introspection, each line a tether between consciousnesses.

Title: Untitled (Joy in Fragments)
Medium: Mixed media collage – paint, fabric, jewelry, digital print, and ribbon tape
This collage merges fragments of painting, film stills, and textile embellishments into a vivid meditation on memory and self-perception. At its center, a woman’s body becomes both subject and camera—her head replaced by a lens—suggesting how identity is constantly recorded, reframed, and reimagined. Around her, laughter and sensuality radiate through layered figures drawn from pop culture and cinema, particularly the two women from Sprung whose unguarded joy anchors the work’s emotional tone.
The vibrant fabrics and ornamental jewelry on each corner turn the piece into a shrine of exuberance—yet one haunted by distortion and self-surveillance. Through its dense layering, the work visualizes the cluttered mental space between external image and internal experience, between performance and genuine feeling.

Signal Interference (Self-Portrait in Red)
Medium: Digital collage and illustration, mixed media
Description:
Signal Interference (Self-Portrait in Red) explores the tension between mediated identity and lived experience. The artist positions themselves within a fragmented domestic space—half interior, half transmission—where digital color bars, plants, and everyday objects coexist in uneasy harmony.
The central figure, dressed in red and masked, appears both embodied and pixelated, caught between visibility and distortion. Venetian blinds slice across the composition, evoking both privacy and surveillance; they obscure and reveal in alternating bands, much like the glitches that interrupt the image. The surrounding details—a potted plant, a framed anatomical study, a lamp, and collaged textures—anchor the digital noise in a tangible world, suggesting the blending of physical and virtual realities.
The piece captures a distinctly post-pandemic psychology, one shaped by isolation, self-observation, and technological mediation. The mask becomes both shield and mirror; the camera, both witness and barrier. Through a vivid interplay of analog and digital motifs, the artist reflects on how identity flickers in and out of clarity when filtered through screens and systems.
Corn Curls and Other Echoes
Medium: Digital collage and mixed media
Description:
Corn Curls and Other Echoes is a vivid meditation on nostalgia, identity, and mass culture. Layering repeated portraits, vintage textures, and objects of consumer desire, the artist constructs a dense, pop-surreal environment that feels both intimate and archival.
At the composition’s center, a brightly colored bag of snack food—“Hill’s Corn Curls”—becomes a symbol of memory and consumption, anchoring a world of sensory excess. Surrounding it, the repeated image of the artist’s face suggests self-replication and fragmentation, echoing how identity is shaped by repetition—of media, memory, and self-presentation. Costume jewelry, sheer fabrics, and decorative motifs blur boundaries between artifice and authenticity, luxury and kitsch.
A floating cassette tape and clusters of sculpted faces evoke analog memory and collective voice, while the patterned background hums with electric energy—reminiscent of the texture of television static or fabric weave. The result is both playful and haunting: a portrait of the self refracted through cultural residue, where beauty, consumption, and identity intertwine in a cycle of reinvention.
