Thrilled to share that the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) has acquired three of my artworks for their permanent collection in the Prints and Drawings department.

This acquisition comes at a pivotal time, as diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) efforts face growing challenges. In a region celebrated for its vibrant and diverse cultural landscape, it’s essential for museums to reflect the voices of the artists who shape its identity. Grateful to be part of this ongoing conversation.

HONORING VETERANS

These banners will pay tribute to Veterans, their families, and the West LA VA community, honoring their service and stories. Grateful for the opportunity to contribute to this meaningful project!

EXHIBITIONS

EXPERIENCE 61: GROW

GROW invites visitors on an introspective and communal journey through the ever-evolving tapestry of human experience. This experience explores the flux of life as an unending process of growth, encompassing moments of pain, healing, and transformation. Through evocative installations and multimedia works, GROW delves into the fragments of memory that shape us, highlighting the interplay between self-identification, community, and environment. It honors ancestral wisdom while emphasizing the importance of investing in oneself, celebrating the dual nurturing forces of nature and human connection. The exhibition illuminates how historical developments and intuitive leaps have allowed humanity to flourish, while encouraging viewers to embrace their own flaws and seek enlightenment through acceptance. Featuring diverse artists who explore themes of personal and collective growth, GROW inspires reflection on finding one’s voice amid the influences of the surrounding world. Whether through the resilience of the human code or the quiet power of positive energy, this exhibition asserts that growth—both individual and communal—is the path to self-realization and unity. In a city renowned for its cultural vibrancy, GROW offers a hopeful, dynamic space to celebrate life’s transformative journey.
