My practice follows after influences such as June Jordan and Allan Kaprow. It blurs into my life. I strive to expand realms of possibility by making silly and inscrutable objects, writing through my understanding, and study of/with my surroundings. I like to work on revealing frameworks, patterns of the “usual”, for two main reasons: a) transcending frameworks is a liberatory practice, in the act of investigating limits I have the chance to see from a broader perspective. b) frameworks function well to facilitate life and when they become visible it is easy to see how much we share and create with every other person, even our “enemy.”
