I am a mixed-media painter based in New England. My work bears witness to ecological trauma—its physical effects, historical causes, and emotional impact—through combinations of scientific data, symbolic imagery, and archival materials that explore how evidence, culture, and history shape humanity’s relationship with the natural world.
Environmental decline is central to my practice, and each body of work is grounded in research. I weave archival texts and imagery within my work to reveal historical roots of contemporary issues, and use mythic figures as embodiments of 21st century ecological distress. I translate digital graphics of environmental data into expressive symbols, and incorporate handwritten fragments of scientific text directly into my paintings. These often barely legible elements function as both evidence and warning, reflecting how data-driven information is widespread yet difficult to fully absorb, shaped by access, politics, and conflicting interpretations.
Through a layered visual language and interdisciplinary approach, my work aims to cultivate awareness and critical reflection of urgent ecological challenges confronting all living beings.
Note: My practice includes providing resources that support emotional well-being related to eco-anxiety, community building, and social justice action. Practical action resources to support biodiversity, along with contacts for organizations involved in habitat restoration, are made available at exhibitions and speaking engagements.
