我研究了用纸浆来记录亲密关系的潜力,就像手写信件一样,它为观众提供了一个情感连接的空间。在这种复杂的政治时期,内省和触觉有必要平衡快节奏的数字文化,在这种文化中,信息可能会在扁平图像的光泽中丢失。触觉——一种解释视觉感知如何转化为内在体验和感受的跨学科理论——吸引我们回到自身,而不是表面接触。我开始用纸张来做这样的感官体验。
I investigate the potential of paper pulp to record touch and create intimacy, much as a handwritten letter does, by offering a space for emotional connection to the viewer. During complex political times such as these, introspection and tactility feel necessary to counterbalance the fast-paced digital culture where information can be lost in the glossiness of a flattened image. Hapticity – a cross-disciplinary theory that explains how visual perceptions translate into internal experiences and feelings – draws us into the body, beyond surface encounters. I began working with paper to engage in such a sensory experience. 
我的作品既与雕塑有关,也与绘画有关,参考了转瞬即逝的日常生活中的色调,如摇摇欲坠的人行道、黄昏、淤青的水果或发红的脸颊。我将这些色彩的灵感视为事件,我致力于研究色彩和纹理如何激活情感,连接我们的内在和外在体验,并在我们的生活中创造意义。我的雕塑唤起了人们紧张、尴尬、焦虑、失落和快乐的情绪。
My works are as much about painting as they are about sculpture, referencing hues from fleeting, everyday moments like crumbling sidewalks, dusk, bruised fruit, or flushed cheeks. I see these inspirations of color as events and I am invested in how color and texture can activate emotion, connecting to both our inward and outward experience, and creating meaning in our existence. My sculptures evoke tension, awkwardness, anxiety, loss, and pleasure.
