Coming Up for Air, 2025
A love letter to the Earth 🌍
The painting “Coming Up for Air” began with grief; with the overwhelming realization that we have forgotten something innate to us- our connection to the Earth and the interdependence of all of her inhabitants.
This piece is my commitment as an artist and as a human to make work that challenges what we allow to continue and to no longer look away from harsh truths. I want to make space for our collective grief to exist and to remind us there is hope in returning to the Earth.
Today, let us be grateful for the beauty, resilience, and wonder of our planet. But let us also commit to steps forward, together, to create a better world for future generations to come.
