About The Artist

​

I am an artist focusing on the generative nature of movement without the constrictions or restrictions of singular mediums. Akin to the mark-making of the 1960’s, where artists refused to be limited by the contemporary tools of their trade, I recognize that ideas themselves (the dreams, thoughts, and questions I have) are only fully actualized when I do not allow the borders of a particular medium to define me or the embodied concepts.

​

The evidence of my evolution is continuously materializing through works that express an on going artistic practice. The work I do is about movement in every sense of the word; what moves the body, how that drives ideas, how those ideas manifest in various forms, and how I guide others to find their own movement.

 

This webpage serves as a  place where I can park the various strands of my work and invite you to enter into conversations or collaborations, or perhaps just as an inspiration to those who are not sure how to connect all the parts of themselves.
