I confront the visual archives of Western imperialism and its ongoing legacy, which have shaped racial hierarchies and promoted ideologies of racial superiority. Colonial narratives often frame white experiences as normative, distorting public understanding of history and reinforcing systemic racial hierarchies. Through my practice, I reimagine these narratives, offering alternative representations that challenge and expand historical perspectives.

My work is primarily painting-led, contained intricate, line-based mark-making influenced by my ADHD and my mother’s former work as a seamstress. These textile-like patterns evoke the threading, unravelling, and reweaving of histories, mirroring the complexities of memory, heritage, and cultural continuity. I incorporate manipulated paper forms inspired by Zhizha, a Chinese funeral effigy craft, adapting its principles to contemporary art. Paper, historically linked to information-keeping and storytelling, serves as a medium for commemorating and re-envisioning legacies.

At times, my works have automated mechanisms or act as portals to meta content such as AI-generated audio. These immersive elements invite viewers to engage with layered narratives, offering opportunities for reflection on colonial histories and their contemporary relevance.
