The world likes to shout - be more, be less, go faster, do more, more, more. Seemingly, it thinks we shouldn’t go slow, do nothing, be still, be enough - simply, be.
What if you remembered the bliss contained within you? A you-topia where you are full, quiet and calm, no matter the noise? A pause, any moment you need.
(pause) is series of poetic paintings about a place of stillness. Inviting you to (pause), to remember where you are, who you are, why you are. By the end, you’re sent to play and continue onward, but always knowing your pause is there for you - exactly as you are.

erode the ego
what will you find?
what is the wind, the rain, time?
is it you? is it me?
undoing
to begin
to the essence of what is
what always was
what will become -
transcend individuality
the body, belief- deconstruct
layers of sediment, history
the hard, the tender, the eager
ever-changing, ephemeral
we are the wind, the particle
the form, forever
a hidden unity
within and without the surface
the collective, uncovered
capable of canyons
swift or slowly
creating, destroying, creating
in collaboration with the river, the rain
with joy, with pain
everything -
erode as: to let go, to embrace uninvited change, to break into the most basic form, humbled by uncertainty, vulnerability, exposing, examining, a dynamic collaboration with universal undoing - a beginning.
ego as: entitlement, starving greed, the constructs absent of true wealth or wellbeing, as the ignorance of toxic individualism, the bitterness of never being “enough” - when you are already everything. -
if nothing in stone is set,
where will we land next?
how will we get there?

“not me us” sticker design created in shared sentiment with the Bernie Sanders campaign 2020.
I was deeply inspired by lyrics to the song “Beachcomber” by Pomegranates; "Headed for the beach, what are you looking for? You said you're looking for yourself, somewhere off the shore. If you find yourself, does that mean you were looking too? And if you find yourself, how will you know it's you?"

“that’s just how it is.”
or is it?
there must be more.
the possibilities
could they already be here?
waiting for us to see?
the sky is the limit
...or is it? 🤔

when I think about constructs, about the ways we learn to carry these personal prisons within ourselves and to expect them of others, and of our society. I think about how established structures seem “fine” when we benefit, and also how we feel intimidated by endless possibilities without some patterns of familiarity... of safety.
we know the current structures do not support everyone. they do not keep us all safe. what really is stopping us from making new systems? community, accountability, care, nuance, and understanding, etc. do we have the courage, the collective responsibility? because that is how constructs are constructed, right? and even when the old ones appear to be made of stone, rigid and heavy, they are not permanent. we do not need permission to open up to the possibilities. there are so many we are already practicing.
“That’s just how it is.” - how limiting to our imaginations; how can we open up to the possibilities within the present to liberate us?

As humans, our memory plays a large role in how we navigate the world. Our problem solving skills are unique human traits, depending on our past experiences to make decisions and grow as individuals.
For my undergrad senior thesis, I created a series of conceptual illustrations depicting a selection of memory types and processes using simple shapes and limited palettes. I then decided to adapt them into a memory exercise, an iteration of the game Concentration, forming what is essentially a memory game about memory.
ROM is designed to engage, educate and refine recollection; a type of memory retrieval through the act of reconstructing memory often utilizing logical structures, partial memories, narratives, or clues.
