"On Pause" is a series inspired by the imagery and texture of 1990s and early-2000s suburbia. The cul-de-sacs, lawn chairs, box TVs, and sun-bleached afternoons that defined a slower, analog kind of summer. Each work captures a scene caught mid-moment, set against the backdrop of a long warm day with nowhere in particular to be.

There's a quiet contradiction running through the series: figures with screens for faces, present in body but tuned somewhere else, sitting in the kind of in-between time that childhood summers were made of. It's a portrait of a culture on the edge of the digital age, still grounded in the physical world of driveways and porches, but already drifting toward the glow.

More than nostalgia, the work is an invitation to slow down. To take pause, sit in the heat a little longer, and soak in the small unremarkable moments before they pass. The afternoons that felt endless at the time, and impossibly brief in memory.
