About the artist
An artist and arts educator living in Oregon's Wilamette Valley, I conduct an exploratory practice and research related to transdisciplinary / anti-disciplinary art-making. I have an emphasis on modular sound design, painting, drawing, and alternative documentation, however I regularly engage with a number of different mediums and disciplines.
Much of my work addresses personal narratives of anxiety, trauma, and sleeplessness as an individual contribution towards normalization, as well as an acknowledgement of the runaway access to materials and information that has come to privileged demographics and geographies in the Internet Age. I believe that contemporary mental health issues are in superposition with our technological ecology, both aspects able to aggravate and offset the other.
I am currently working as a full time instructor of art at Oregon State University, primarily teaching intermediate and upper division painting and drawing.
