Paper behaves with its own quiet agency, soaked, torn,  it becomes a partner in the process of ‘working through’. There is irony in writing with paper rather than on it; the material holds memory, resistance, and possibility. In a recent installation, Unearthed Grammar, the drying process reshaped the forms, material matter working its alchemy, becoming part of the meaning, echoing the unresolved, the enmeshed, the unknown. Alongside these works, I journal visually, a daily pastel practice where subconscious imagery surfaces in quick, two-word titled pieces that echo recurring themes.
