And We Measure the Earth (Claiming Space)

Where individuality and community intersect, space emerges as a focal point in my artistic exploration. “Hell is other people” as Sartre declared and “Claiming Space” speaks to the that inherent tension in our collective occupancy-the delicate interplay between asserting ownership, negotiating boundaries, and shaping identity.

In And We Measure the Earth, the first installment of the series Claiming Space, each pair of canvases captures a fleeting moment of movement against the blind contour of ongoing motion. These works explore the lyrical and philosophical dance of marking territory in unbounded space — the luxury of privilege.
