Creative work is shaped as much by reflection as by production. This section brings together studio essays, personal reflections, and writing drawn from the evolving practice behind the artwork, movement teaching, and creative research. These pieces explore themes such as presence, emotional intelligence, artistic process, recovery, and the relationship between stillness and expression.
