Chiral Haven
8x10", Pamphlet Stitched Soft Cover
Archival Ink on Matte Paper

Chiral Haven weaves together northern and southern Appalachia into a third realm that exists as a state of mind accessed through the ritual of photowalks.This body of work pulls from childhood memories and subjects of rumination that surfaced through the meditative process of walking the same roads over and over, and exists as a reflection on grief and change.
Inspired by being intimately tied to two geographical locations connected by a single mountain range, one being a place of origin, the other being a chosen home, the images invite the viewer to examine the near symmetry of two places 800 miles apart.

Created with the rich mythology of Appalachia in mind, this book combines a personal spirtual history with themes of rebirth and baptism.

Between Earth and Sky takes inspiration from William Bartram's journals that he kept as a naturalist while travelling Cherokee trading routes through the western North Carolina region. Part journal meditating on the sensorial experiences of the trail, part reflection on a physical body changing due to chronic illness, this work combines photographs, illustrations, and personal writings to create an intimate artifact encapsulating time spent on the Bartram Trail.
This book incorporates photographs made for the Listening to the Land project with Kinship Photography Collective, the Blue Ridge Bartram Conservancy, and The Bascom.

Vessel weaves together symbolism and documentary photography to explore the internal and external healing process immediately following a hysterectomy at a young age. The project focuses on bodily autonomy and informed consent in healthcare as well as themes of gender identity and chronic illness.
​
Vessel uses alternative printing processes, self portraiture, and documentary photography to explore an internal state that wrestles with expectations of gender and fertility, as well as years of misinformed medical care. This book embraces personal ritual as a tool of continuous transformation and rebirth.
