My work documents individual and collective experiences in my physical/spiritual/psychic environment.

I explore the complexity of relationships and power dynamics between people, animals, domestic spaces, and landscape. That landscape and environment is Texas, Tejas, a border space, known by many names.

Sometimes I employ futuristic imagery inspired by nature, cultural experiences and science fiction. I work from embodied experiences related to mental/physical health, caregiving, and generational pain. This landscape, infrastructure, and society has deeply impacted how I move through different environments.

Through my work, I aim to preserve and illustrate the traces of this impact, shedding light on themes such migration, collective resilience and joy, and connecting with indigenous roots. Much of my earlier work shows the body and mind subject to the pre-pandemic South Texas borderland that I grew up in for over 40 years. Happily, my vision is continuously expanding of the Texas landscape and the Southwest, the frontera, and people. At the heart of my work is being deeply rooted to place, keeping time, and telling stories.
