Early into the pandemic I was compelled to create small, quick "portraits "of personal objects in my immediate vicinity like my eyeglasses, keys, prescription medicine, etc. During the quarantine these intimate and personal objects took on a greater importance and gave me a sense of focus which was much needed. After a few months of living with the pandemic the work continues to inquire into the idea of atypical "portraiture" but has expanded in scale, complexity and now includes qualities of loss, isolation and grief.
