Time. Focus. Community. Perspective.

Each residency marks a shift in the work. I document what changed, the questions I was exploring, the paintings that emerged, and the ideas that carried forward.

These residencies are part of how Structural Omission developed in practice, across different contexts, constraints, and working conditions.
