An abstract exploration of place, belonging, and identity in motion.

Drawing inspiration from nearly three years of international travel, Becoming Home examines the evolving relationship between identity and place. Through abstract compositions, layered textures, and natural materials, the work explores the tension between rootedness and movement, familiarity and discovery.

Created primarily on raw linen with an intentionally organic approach, each painting reflects the emotional experiences encountered through travel: wonder, impermanence, connection, longing, and belonging. Rather than representing specific destinations, the collection considers home as a condition we cultivate rather than the place we were born into.

Becoming Home invites viewers to reflect on the spaces, memories, and experiences that shape who we become, and the possibility that home may exist not in a fixed location, but within ourselves.
