In Collecting and Selecting, I am exploring the way others adorn their lives and how these elements add up to emblematize the keeper of the treasures. With linoleum relief prints and drawings, I compose a unique type of portraiture that reveals the parallel identity between the way we dress ourselves and our living spaces. Within my process, I capture moments with photographs, draw, carve, print, and cut out the elements that hold a presence of the owner. Utilizing a heightened sense of contrast with black and white images, the textures and details of these objects come alive. Each gallery wall represents a different person, those persons being inspiring artist friends and my Momwhos collected interior is what inspired this concept. These studies produce a visual narrative, which reveal the relationships and connections that we create with the material things that we collect as they become extensions of us.
