SYNESTHESIA
Each painting in this series is a response to mood, often influenced by environment, music, stress, and information overload. Each piece records a unique emotional state at a specific point in time. Using a straight edge and brush, I layer, scrape, and push paint into the paper, creating fluid and rigid shapes that suggest tension and release. This series began as an exercise to physically respond to emotions as a method for release.
Having moved to Berlin from New York City, I experienced a drastic shift in environmental energy—a slowing down that collided with my internal speed. The recognition and release of tension, recorded on paper, became a daily visual diary and a cathartic process for filtering emotions.
