Projects

Projects are groupings of related works, pieces, research, and writing that address a broader, overarching set of ideas.

In my practice, projects have all been long- term engagements with specific subject matter, concepts, ideas, and thinking.

In some cases it might seem like the works and pieces are not related to each other, but in practice they are exploring different aspects and visions of an idea.

  • Water

    For the past few years, I have focused on the cultural losses caused by environmental degradation, specifically the rising sea levels and coastal erosion affecting the Atlantic and Gulf regions of the United States. My course of study explores the intersection of ecology, culture, history, anthropology, and environmental justice, alongside postcolonial, queer, and feminist concepts…

  • Time

    In my practice, I have been very interested with the representations of the concept of ‘Flat time’ or the idea of an existence framed by “parallel timelines” experienced concurrently, an existence where all ancestral beings and all spirit entities co-exist concurrently in both their respective timelines as well as in ours.

I’ve been fascinated by a Sufi tale my high school art teacher told me about, which is contained in a 200-page book with only one story that is reduced to the following sentence: ‘Until you understand the difference between the container and the content, you…

  • Remnants

    This grouping of work collects various pieces and projects that do not fit the main flow of my practice. Some projects are one-offs, while others are explorations into potential areas of deeper research or single pieces that didn’t warrant further attention. Here, you’ll see various pieces grouped into related patterns based on content, technique, or…

  • COLLABORATIONS

    This is a grouping of different collaborative projects I have worked on with different creatives, organizations, and groups. This encompasses collaborating with arts organizations, contributing to other artists’ films, performances, and books, as well as engaging in various socially engaged projects. It’s always exciting and interesting to collaborate with others on creative projects, even though…
