Past Work
Residency Work
This collection of work was inspired by the joy and liveness I’ve felt in the past month.
Kefi is a Greek word that means spirit of joy, zest for life, triumph, passion, and enthusiasm. Some say it is the way of life for the Greeks. At Governor’s School, I seem to have found this spirit of joy again. I felt as if I had lived like the Greeks for a little bit. These pieces are representative of my expression of that joy. The paper sculpture is directly inspired by the painting, a nod to the connections I have formed from my life at home and here at Governor’s School. Here, everything seems to be elevated and pushed into another dimension. I created these with gratitude in mind, for the people and things that had made this experience possible. The extent to which Governor’s School has impacted me is never something I could put into words, but through these pieces, I hope you can catch a glimpse.
