“My paintings begin with the structure of a tree and expand through an intuitive transfer of energy. I approach the body as a conduit through which gesture, material, and lived experience move between states. Through layering and movement, the work becomes a process of translation—turning sensation, memory, and reflection into form. Each painting records a moment of distance and awareness, when I am able to look back at my life and consider questions of identity and existence. In this way, the work moves between the personal and the collective, asking not only what I am, but what we are.” -SMM
