Quote
"The only way to begin to heal from intergenerational trauma that we carry is to acknowledge it, to give it a voice, and to find a way to transform it.
My work allows me to see my trauma through a lens of connection and curiosity, to change the story into one of triumph rather than victimhood."

Annie Murphy Robinson

In my art, I create a space for personal connection, inviting viewers to interpret and engage with their own experiences. Rooted in my history, my work evokes feelings of sadness and introspection. I created and use a unique technique, embedding dry materials onto paper with sandpaper, to explore light and shadow in realistic portraits. Each piece reflects my personal connection to subjects, mainly my daughters, and is titled simply to allow open interpretation. As authentically as possible, I curate compositions to evoke specific emotions and incorporate props to enrich narratives. Ultimately, my art serves as a visual diary, reflecting my journey and inviting dialogue about universal human experiences
