This work is about the negative side of online education. I carved a stamp of a student sitting at a desk in front of a computer screen that says “EDUCATE.” I then stamped it 306 times on top of school papers donated to the project by my classmates. The stamps vary in weight and opacity, creating an optical illusion-like effect. The large scale of the work and monotonous placement of the stamps highlight the repetitive nature of online education. 17ft by 3ft.

This encaustic and multimedia artwork was created during my time at the Georgia Governor's Honors Program. The base layers are a collection of trash found in the art building. Next, I layered encaustic on top and created geometric sections to break up the busy composition. I then scratched away some of the encaustic and filled the divots with oil paint. This work is titled Record #60 because it records what my classmates and I produced at GHP, created from the remnants of our process.

This painting explores the toxic effect of social media on body image and how it has affected me in the past. I created the piece on a large mirror I purchased from Goodwill. The reflective surface allows the viewer to put themselves in the shoes of the subject and acts as a reflection of how social media affects our world. I intentionally distorted the faces to show the distorting nature of social media.

This dress was showcased at the 2023 Atlanta Dogwood Festival as part of the Atlanta High School Art Exhibition. My sister and I made the dress out of old upholstery fabric. I created my initial sketch digitally and then used chalk to transfer my design with a stencil. The painting depicts ten dances worldwide and shows the connectivity of dance across cultures. I used pinks and blues to give it a dream-like feeling and used the dancers' limbs to create movement.

With this paper relief, I wanted to explore human advancements in architecture and art through history. I researched different artistic styles and technological advancements to construct the columns from pre-antiquity to the present. I then made the relief using layered paper to create three-dimensional forms and emphasized raised portions of the work with cardboard underneath.
