Through experimental printmaking, I engage in a personal ritual that becomes a form of remembrance, creating psychic imprints that invite intimate, sentient engagement. Fragile materials, ice, ash, sand, ephemeral surfaces, become my language for exploring presence, absence, loss, and connection. These works are gestures toward preserving what cannot be fixed: moments, feelings, histories, and the delicate traces they leave behind. Whether through transforming hidden portraits in participatory projects, printing onto melting ice as a meditation on memory and impermanence, or releasing ephemeral inscriptions into the landscape, my practice traces a path between personal remembrance and collective experience. For me, the print is not an object to own, but a vessel for a shared, transient encounter where disappearance itself becomes a quiet form of preservation and a testament to the beauty of what passes away..
