My work combines the personal with the political, exploring the tension between the need for visibility and risks of exposure inherent in the experience of queer family life and nonbinary gestational parenthood.

In this recent body of work I apply the process of screenprinting to tile with thick inks and metallic leaf. The use of tile recalls the home and interior spaces. The meticulous and tedious process of assembling these blankets of ceramic, references the work of parents and caregivers.

As a printmaker I am interested in pushing the boundary of the two dimensional image. By printing on many individual tiles, I transfer the images to objects, giving them weight and allowing them to take up more space in the room. I use bitmapped photographs with large dot patterns, contemplating the act of building something from many tiny parts.
