I explore the constructs of sexuality, gender stereotypes, and the perception of beauty. Using men as a focal point, my work analyzes shifts in preconceived notions that society has been conditioned to believe grooming and beauty are inherently feminine.

Artist Statement:
Art is just one form of expression for me. My life, my thoughts, emotions, observations and my body are all my subjects. I am deeply inspired by nature and my part in it. Everything I absorb from this beautiful yet destructive universe is the inspiration behind my works. I prefer watercolor and ink. The fluidity of those materials resembles my thoughts and emotions which has no boundary and timeframe. They travel freely from one emotion to another.My migratory life and constant conflict of being rooted in my own culture gives me the chance to see visual images beyond time, space and cultural periphery.

Artist Statement:
Locality is important to me, and I rely heavily on what’s around me for content and inspiration. I have spent most of my life living in varied communities in both the U.S. and the global south, which has helped build my visual vocabulary. My collaged materials are sourced from locally made papers, dollar store finds, and teen magazines.
