Mycelium

Growing up in an environment that stifled creativity and discouraged independence, I struggled with self-doubt and trauma from a legalistic father and a religious cult that shaped my formative years.

My art now explores themes of suffering and healing, as I navigate the long-term effects of abuse and rejection. Creating art as therapy has helped me process much of the pain, acknowledging that the void my father has left will never be filled by anything or anyone.  This journey has taught me the value of living authentically, confronting fears, and embracing discomfort.

As I expand into new mediums like fiber, sculpting, and repurposing materials, I’m determined to master skills once deemed outside my reach, proving to myself that I can shape my future on my own terms.
