Process

The silk foundation stands as the central protagonist in this artistic process. After two decades working with this beautiful natural material, I hold a deep respect for its historical legacy, traditional methods of production, and the people who have granted me the skills to use it.

Layered washes and delicate strokes of gouache settle onto the softly reflective silk, drawing in the light. The negative space cradles the object in quiet reverence—free from distraction—inviting the viewer to connect intimately and place the object within their own personal history.
