The Practice

This practice is rooted in figurative drawing and ongoing exploration of intimacy, psychological presence, and stillness. Working primarily in charcoal, the artist is drawn to moments of quiet contact, containment, and interior pause.

The work emphasizes tonal subtlety, material sensitivity, and deliberate slowness, allowing form to emerge through observation rather than assertion. Gesture, weight, and atmosphere are treated as carriers of meaning, often resisting narrative clarity in favor of sustained contemplation.

While informed by traditions of figurative realism, the practice remains grounded in contemporary concerns of perception, interiority, and the complexity of human connection.
