My work is an investigation of what any act of translation, recording, or reproduction carries forward and what it loses. I use oil and cold wax because the medium holds history visibly — earlier layers ghost through later ones, incised marks reveal what's underneath. The surface becomes an archaeological record of its own making.

The surface accumulates. The surface remembers.

What the Surface Remembers.
