Vital Encounters

2024

“Rooted in the aching present, Vital Encounters extends an outstretched hand towards the small weedy spaces within our bodies and landscapes that are routinely deemed deviant, disposable, or unworthy. This work combines the corporeal language of observational drawing with the spontaneous nature of monotype printmaking as a means of amplifying the significance of these often-overlooked encounters.”
