Artist Statement
'A Cure for the Fatigue' emerges from an engagement with materials that carry energy, marked by endurance and meaning across distance and time. Architecture is understood as a refuge and a container for stories that persist beyond the moment of their making. These recent works seek to honor unseen forces and guiding spirits by giving them figurative imprints and form.

Through rigorous processes of carving, shaping, and hammering, the works reflect an ongoing search for a remedy: the effort to remain buoyant amid accumulated weight, tension, and complexity. Each piece considers the notion of longevity; what can be preserved, shared, and transmitted through object and material.

Shaped as gestures of care and presence, this in progress series asks what rest might look like in a world organized around constant motion, migration, and what it means to carve out spaces of safety, quiet, and repair. The home, as context, emerges as a site of offering and rest, layered with history, sustained through attention, maintenance, and love.
