this year has been a fucking mess for everyone and everything & so is the art I’m making and experimenting with. since my first solo show in 2021 I’ve tried to make work that I thought i “should” be making. fuck that. we’re imperfect and messy and that’s okay.
Waste of Meat (trauma visualization), 2026

I sat here trying to think of what to say in the caption, but the truth is, we’re all tired and exhausted. The world is heavy and it affects our mental and physical health. I’ve been thinking about how leaving trauma unaddressed and festering will affect our bodies and minds. And at 34, I’ve decided to make some changes to better my mental and physical health. Art is such an outlet and I’m thankful to get to be and work around so many talented people who remind me your art is healing and a way to turn pain, struggle, and fear into beauty 💕
Vince on film, 2026
It was such a pleasure to shoot with @vincethealien and get to know him better as an artist and person. Here’s to more collaboration this year! 💕
34 today and wow what a journey it has been. Ever since coming back from our honeymoon in December, our apartment has been infested with mold, rendering us unable to live there. I’ve been in a temporary apartment with no furniture or most of my belongings. The situation has been stressful and I haven’t seen friends as much. I’ve gained weight, my diet hasn’t been the best, and the world right now is dark. But with all of that happening, I’ve decided to try to take steps to take my happiness back. I’ve started therapy again, started shooting film, and come back to my art. This year I want us to be kinder to each other because we never know what someone is dealing with. Let’s all try to be more empathetic, compassionate, and kind, myself included. 💕
