In these works, the artist uses repurposed denim, re-worked and repurposed & reimagined past paintings which are patched, sewed and mended. Combined with wood, paints, and pigments, to construct an abstract body that melds memories, cultural artifacts, and oral histories together. Surface markings inherent of "tribal scarification," representative of ancestral histories and experiences.
