Research Interest
My creative research investigates how compositional thinking can create relationships between artistic materials, personal experiences, and people, opening possibilities for discovery, connection, and transformation throughout both the creative process and the audience experience.
My practice is socially engaged and ethically responsive, often growing from personal experiences, memories, and responses to the world around me. Through my work, I explore how culturally specific stories and experiences can resonate with people from diverse backgrounds, creating opportunities for reflection, connection, and new perspectives.
Working across acoustic and electroacoustic music, movement, image, material, and technology, I use compositional thinking to discover relationships between artistic elements and allow each project's form to emerge through investigation and experimentation. I am particularly interested in how the physical, cultural, and emotional qualities of materials can inspire artistic structures and interdisciplinary relationships.
I also see artistic creation as a shared process of discovery. Through collaboration and experimentation, the artists involved, including myself, may develop new understandings and experiences that shape both the work and our perspectives.
My ongoing research explores how these relationships can create meaningful artistic encounters and possibilities for transformation, both during the creative process and through audience engagement.
