Nested Roles (2026, New York) frames the self as a structure with occupants. Inside a single outline, smaller figures appear like compartments of identity, each reaching, signaling, or working in its own direction. The portrait becomes a lived-in interior, where parts of the mind perform different jobs at once, sometimes cooperating, sometimes colliding. Rather than resolving into one stable face, the drawing shows identity as something inhabited, assembled from roles that overlap and refuse to fully merge.
