Embedded images 

Images trapped, carried, and transformed by breath, material, and gravity

 

In this series, images appear only to be engulfed, obscured, or carried by layers of paint, ash, mesh, and sediment.

Rather than serving as representation, the image becomes a fragile inhabitant of material forces—a residue suspended within a larger process of transformation.

Here, painting becomes an arena where breath, gravity, and matter negotiate the survival, disappearance, or mutation of the image itself.
