Artist Statement
I parse through questions and ideas surrounding waste, labor, and play using an amalgam of strategies, most prominently multimedia installation, kinetic sculpture, and systems building. I use levity and absurdity to destabilize underlying assumptions about objects, systems, and spaces.
Recently I have been parsing through these questions and ideas:
The absurdity of ownership and sustainable alternatives
Is waste impossible or inevitable? How can repurposing and recategorizing waste affect how we treat it?
What is the relationship between futility and labor?
How can ‘artificial embodiment’ affect emotional response and attachment to objects and machines
