My work examines identity and memory using mixed media, found objects, sourced personal text and images. This collection of work is my response as an isolated artist during this time of COVID-19 and the global pandemic crisis. The work explores ideas of isolation, racism, fear, grief, transformation, protection, health, safety and community. Return
