These mixed-media artworks are dreamlike narratives rendered through a compelling fusion of analog photography, hand-painted text, and poetic storytelling. Using Polaroid imagery transferred onto hand-coated brown paper or traditional Amate paper from Mexico, the artists root their work in tactile history. Every element—be it pigment pen, stitched line, or type—feels purposeful and intimate, as though uncovering forgotten mythologies etched into both landscape and psyche

Each piece is a tile in a larger visual folklore. Lovely Dark Deep, inspired by Joyce Carol Oates, channels the haunted genius of Robert Frost and overlays Vermont’s rural bleakness with meditations on identity and legacy. Five of Them Are Lies, with its Cape Cod icehouse, juxtaposes domestic ritual and female agency—casting folklore not as static memory but a tool of survival. Ghost Dress animates inanimate things, granting objects emotional memory—a ghost story told from the perspective of place.

The works consistently conjure liminal spaces—half remembered, half invented—where myth meets history. Blow Through Her No More is a powerful allegory of human fragility and repair, its protagonist literally torn but dreaming of a red thread to mend herself. No One Holds Me and I Will Be Gone give voice to sea widows and wandering girls, invoking rhyme, spellwork, and elemental longing.

Critically, these works resist linear narrative. Instead, they emulate memory—fragmented, stitched, overwritten. The use of text as both image and narrative blurs poetry and visual art, resulting in a visual storytelling rooted in personal and cultural archaeology. Through layering of media, time, and voice, these works ask: What do places remember? What does the depicted figure become when seen through the prisms of myth, history, and words?
