A series of thirteen oil paintings made in 2018, addressing struggles with structure, barriers, and portraiture in comparison and conversation with itself.
Ignorant and Innocent. Holding both things at the same time. Our edges fracture us and make us whole. These marks are simultaneous reminders of comfort and trauma.
Can the two ever be separated? Even if they could, should they be? This work is a conflict between carving out clarity and making peace with a nebulous reality.
