Between Place and Object

'Between Place and Object brings together two sides of my painting practice — still life and landscape — reflecting different aspects of my personality.

My smaller, still life alla-prima works explore containment, care, and the quiet observation of domestic life, painted directly from life to capture rhythm, light, and intimacy. In contrast, my abstracted landscapes dissolve edges and expand outward, responding to place through plein air studies and studio explorations of scale, gesture, and materiality.

Together, these threads balance intimacy and freedom, reflection and expression, mirroring my multi-faceted nature as both observer and explorer.'
