Dis-Embody Language (2014-2021)
Developed through encounters on New York’s streets and subways, these paintings and drawings follow the gestures of an increasingly screen-absorbed world: bowed heads, occupied hands, bodies together and minds elsewhere. Statues, animals and figures borrowed from art history join the conversation. Through painterly distortion, visual puns and improbable encounters, the works explore the body unattended and the gestures that persist in our absence.
