In my current body of work, I am continuing to tell the story of The Tree. Within The Tree’s universe I am exploring the idea of portals, as avenues of storytelling, worldbuilding, transportation and transformation. It also through my practice that I utilize collected items of personal significance and transform them into different objects, through this I examine the memories these items hold and build worlds from them.

A peek into my further exploration into the circle and my experimentations of portals. As I continue to expand the circle and my alter ego The Tree, I am trying to create portals into new worlds, create ways of transportation, and tell The Tree’s story. It is this current stage that I am experimenting with different materials to create various iterations of circles/portals.
