Jerusalem
Jerusalem Road is one of the most beautiful roads in the country according to some survey done several years ago. I’m bought in. It’s a winding coastal road that snakes along the Atlantic ocean revealing stunning natural cliffs, Sandy and Rocky beaches, and unreal lavish homes. We drove this way often as teenages listening to music and enjoying the views.

9 in X 12 in (23 cm X 30 cm)
This collection is very personal for me. It’s a reflection of feeling unmoored since my parents sold my childhood home a few years ago (I don’t blame them btw!). The concept of home is so sacred and comforting. I have been missing the attachment to the physical place. Even though I’ve lived from home since I turned 18, it was always somewhere I could go back to. This year, I’ve been struggling with uncertainty around my home given I’m renting my current place in London. The series shows abstract distant views of places familiar to me from in and around my hometown of Cohasset, Massachusetts. There is a playfulness as well as a nostalgic distance. There’s also an openness expressed through the blocks of colours that reflect the ambiguity of the future while the details in the distance show the finality of the past. For me, creating these pieces was a way to cope and process the ungrounding.
