SANCTUARY IN SOLITUDE · 2024
A series of lantern paintings that offers a slice of the artist’s life during a year of healing, rediscovery, and exploration of self in solitude.
This series was showcased at the Paper Moon Artist Residency Showcase at the Wave Collective in October 2024.
Cutting Expectations I & II
All the paintings were created using watercolors on either Washi or Thai Kozo paper, which were subsequently wrapped around lantern structures constructed with foam core boards.
Escape Garden I & II
Though not immediately apparent, even the gentle, mundane aspects of life can reveal beauty and depth when illuminated from within.
By painting on both sides of the washi paper, where the motifs overlap, a new layer of meaning emerges when the lanterns are lit.
Meditative Flow I, II, & III
This series invites the viewer to celebrate the nuances of their routine, everyday life that evoke comfort and joy.
Inner Landscapes
This project wouldn't have been possible without the nurturing space created by the Paper Moon Collective, and all the friends who helped bring the final show together. Thank you <3
