Projects

Portrait series focusing on scoliosis, a condition that causes 4 out of every 100 people to

have an abnormal spinal curvature. I aim to explore and expose the many facets of scoliosis, from the physical manifestations of the condition to the less visible, but equally important, emotional and psychological effects that it can have on those who live with it.

Urban landscape series exploring the juxtaposition of old and new architecture in Montreal, photographed with a 4x5 camera. This is a project that grew out of a curiosity regarding the ways in which Montreal neighbourhoods are layered, and can serve as an observational survey of the connections between Montreal’s ever-changing demographics and the city’s architecture.

Exhibitions

Three-part photography solo exhibition exploring belonging, impermanence, and the textures of daily life in Montreal. Structured around monumental urban landscapes, repeated sky views, and intimate everyday details, the series traces a personal and political relationship to a city that both nurtures and resists. Presented in dialogue with Michel Tremblay’s For the Pleasure of Seeing Her Again at Centaur Theatre, the work echoes the play’s meditation on memory and attachment.
