Pressing the Bruise is an evolving, multidisciplinary visual memoir that explores the complexities of my relationship with my biological father, Fernando. The project delves into the emotional landscapes of absence, myth, and reconciliation, addressing the impact of his absence on my life, my art, and my understanding of family and identity.

PLEASE BE ADVISED... this project includes images and text that reference guns, domestic violence and self harm.

In An Articulation of Dolls, I explore the human tendency toward emotional projection, examining how we attribute narratives and emotions to inanimate objects.

This series of black and white floral images moves beyond the botanical, transforming flowers and plants into symbols of resilience, separation, nurturing, and the eventual process of loss.
