On Foot is an exhibition of paintings created from observations made while walking through Spokane. Walking is not only my primary form of transportation, but also a central part of my artistic practice. The title, On Foot, refers directly to the way I have come to know and see this city, step by step, through slow attention to its details.
These works explore life and the beauty of fleeting moments through the lens of shadows, architecture, and the seemingly mundane objects people leave behind. I am drawn to the overlooked: an abandoned chair, a light glowing in a window, a car waiting in silence. Each of these details carries traces of human presence and possibility.
My meditative walks and the visual documents they inspire are a way of grappling with the vastness of human experience. There is a weight to the large amount of lives and stories being lived out around me that I will never fully know. By celebrating the beauty of the spaces people inhabit and interact with, I aim to honor them in a small way.
