I find light and Mylar reflective material incredibly inspiring and work often with mirroring, multiplication, and fiber optic long exposure photography. I love the organic feel Mylar creates once mirrored onto itself. My mylar storms and propagation series work to abstract the female body into parts that are still recognizable yet create a whole new meaning/understanding. I work with ideas of the divine feminine, sensuality, and vulnerability as strength. I define all of my work as part of sci-fi feminist art.
