I began making both analog and digital collages in 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic, and what began as a simple stress-relieving activity, quickly became an enjoyable outlet for creativity. Using minimal words, I allow the contents of my pieces, as well as the materials I use, to speak for themselves. I draw inspiration from pieces I see in museums, my daily life, and other collage artists, and I enjoy the sense of community that creating brings me.
