“Through layering on top of photographs with painting that creates opacity and transparency, I was creating narratives that allude to the complicated stories of the cultural identity, immigration, colonization, and the global economy that drives these movements... In my works presented at the Galerie Marguo, I continue this practice of layering these narratives. I juxtapose archival photographs with chinoiserie artwork images by Jean-François Boucher, layering painted elements over semi-transparent photographic image.”
