art projects
My artwork explores language, repetition, and social structures, encouraging viewer curiosity and interaction. Projects are conceptual, leading to work in a variety of media: artist's books, gallery installation, photography, public art, and performance. Many projects are ongoing, long-term creative actions. I often collaborate with artists and groups. Work has been exhibited and collected in the US and internationally.
