I am a Los Angeles–based artist (b. 2001). I make films, photographs, and sculptures that channel the deep love and fascination I have for my family: their childhood dreams, memories through revolution, sweeping romance stories, and ancestral heirlooms. I am interested in exploring how stories are preserved, suppressed, or distorted under mass globalization—both in private family spaces and broader historical memory.
