Although this portfolio is organized into three distinct sections, STUDIO, CURATORIAL, and FORMAL, the three practices overlap and inform one another in different ways.
STUDIO consists of practice-based research and material investigation, focused primarily on care and craft through an engagement with both historical and contemporary practices. This work takes the form of installation, craft, and writing.
CURATORIAL is a project-based practice developed through collaboration and curatorial work with artists, designers, and curators. Much of this work takes place through HARM’S REACH PROJECTS, a community-based curatorial project space.
FORMAL encompasses studio-based work grounded in the histories and formal traditions of sculpture, drawing, and painting. This work is supported through relationships with HERRINGER KISS GALLERY and OENO GALLERY, and in turn provides a material and formal foundation for the other areas of practice.
These three areas are not intended to suggest a hierarchy of practices. Rather, each supports and extends the others, creating a space in which different forms of research, making, collaboration, and inquiry can develop in response to what is needed.
