My multidisciplinary work Lilit the Empathic Demon has since 2020 explored the insidious side of empathy, empathy fatigue, trauma-healing modalities, and astrology as storytelling through text messages to a growing community of people. This body of work centers on Lilit, an aerial spirit demon with origins in Sumerian, Akkadian, and Judaic mythology. In the 2nd-7th centuries, artist-healers created spells, drawings, and talismanic objects to trap demons who were often named Lilit.
I created a new seires of aluminum carved drawings using laser cutting machine at Cornell shops while I was the Teiger Mentor for the MFA studenys in spring 2025.
