Deconstructed
Emotional Abstraction

Deconstructed is an ongoing investigation of how presence, memory, and emotion persist when images are broken down and transformed from their original contexts into new narratives. 

Working primarily with publicaly available photographs - at times layered with my own imagery - I use digital tools to create works that sit between documentation and abstraction. Through halftone treatments and graphic patterning, organic forms and human moments are translated into a visual language that references both media representation and memory’s fragmentation.

The work explores how emotion and meaning survive when images are removed from their original circumstances and reinterpreted into abstract forms. As figures become pattern and gesture becomes abstraction, something essential remains: a presence that cannot be fully reduced or erased.

By working with anonymous imagery, I create space for universal rather than specific narratives and figures. The viewer plays an active role, completing the moment and carrying it forward through their own emotional and perceptual experience. The goal is not realism, but resonance.
