365 Squares began as a year-long daily drawing practice in 2018. Working on small wooden panels, I committed to creating one drawing each day for an entire year, resulting in a collection of 365 unique works.
The project emerged from a desire to create a consistent container for engaging with my art practice. Each square became an invitation to pause, pay attention, and enter a process without a predetermined outcome. Rather than working from a specific subject, I approached the drawings as an open-ended inquiry and a process of attentive witnessing, allowing forms, rhythms, and energetic movements to arise intuitively through the act of drawing itself.
While each drawing stands on its own, the intention from the outset was for the pieces to eventually come together as a larger installation. Seen collectively, the squares form a field of evolving relationships, a visual record of recurring movements, energies, and forms emerging across the same finite surface over time. Organic structures, landscapes, symbols, abstractions, and unfamiliar forms appear and dissolve throughout the series, often revealing unexpected connections and resonances between individual works.
Looking back, the project established many of the questions that continue to inform my practice today: the relationship between form and energy, stillness and movement, the ways visible structures emerge from emptiness, and the interplay between individuality and the larger field from which all forms arise.
