This body of work explores the weight we all carry, from the routines of everyday life to the deeper challenges that shape our personal journeys. While these burdens can feel heavy, they also create opportunities for growth, resilience, and self-reflection. The work considers not only what we carry, but how we choose to carry it.

Through layered monotype prints, the artist’s process becomes a reflection of life itself. Building each image involves multiple plates, responding to unexpected outcomes, and finding order within what first feels chaotic. Clarity often emerges only over time, requiring patience, adaptability, and a willingness to stay present as things unfold.

The layered surfaces combine formal structure with symbolic meaning, serving as visual metaphors for endurance, transformation, and grace under pressure. Together, these works invite viewers to see life’s difficulties not just as obstacles, but as essential parts of a meaningful and evolving journey.
