As an interdisciplinary artist based in the San Francisco Bay Area, I consider my practice as a way of sticking my fingers into the porous affective space between things. My practice reckons with the myriad ways in which bodies and objects encounter one another—sometimes resulting in deep affinities or new hybrid conglomerations, and other times revealing disquieting power dynamics. I share these layered visual stories utilizing a variety of tools including painting, drawing, sculpture, assemblage, and language. Most often, my work takes form in large-scale water media on paper.
Recent work engages absurdist conversations and amalgamations at the junction of “The Wild” and the human-built infrastructural landscape: a place where witchy hybrids take root. These works draw on vital materialist thought, grappling with the idea that ‘things’ have an agency all their own, a power that works upon humans and one another to achieve mysterious, unexpected, and sometimes treacherous or enchanting aims.
