I am drawn to the spaces of the in-between; to what might live in the gray area between human and non-human, male and female, Madonna and whore, loyalty and betrayal, repetition and evolution, wild and domesticated, contained and explosive. Wildness and uncertainty both excite and terrify me, and they are ultimately what drive my work.
I love to shift between different modes of expression. I appreciate the challenge of solving creative problems across a wide variety of projects: performance, music, visual arts, gardening, homesteading. Often, I imagine myself as a creative handy person who digs through a mess of tools in an overstuffed van, always searching for the unique thing that I can contribute.
Through my cross-disciplinary approach, I sometimes find myself struggling to embrace a hard-to-define life. However, over and over again, I am driven (to try) to unveil the magic, the peculiarness, the profoundly beautiful, and the unpredictability of existing in this moment, on this planet, in this body. I hope to create art that invites us to shed our inhibitions, to dig deeper, acknowledge complexities, question assumptions, and perhaps emerge a little bit wilder.
