I took some time away from my art practice. At least, I took a break from producing—not from thinking about my practice, observing and researching, or reflecting on how I want to continue producing art. Life threw some curveballs, and I needed time to navigate and learn who I was on the other side. I am relieved to actually be making art again. I hope to share new work and updates in the coming months.
