I originally intended for this painting to commemorate loneliness by depicting myself as a bystander to interactions, to be a meditation on the experience of isolation. As I added paint, however, I found myself increasingly integrated with the work’s figures, leading me to reconsider this piece as a reflection of how connection and intimacy influence one's perspective.

My name is Alaina and I’m a painter and printmaker currently living in Savannah, GA. My work tends to focus on small moments that often get overlooked in our day-to-day lives. These passing moments and borrowed memories can hold so much power and a much needed sense of peace if given the time and attention.
