Cassandra’s work explores the intersection of time and memory through narratives rooted in personal experience. She centers female figures—often composites of multiple influences—to honor the women who have shaped her life. By depicting them nude, she emphasizes vulnerability, approached through a distinctly female lens. Her work engages themes of cultural identity, religion, and personal history. It reflects a deep commitment to exploring the complexities of belonging, belief, and memory, drawing from lived experience to create visually layered narratives that invite reflection and connection. Through painting, she speaks to these ideas and their metaphorical potential.
