Artist Statement
My ongoing art loves span experimental and often collaborative and interdisciplinary approaches. I weave performances, site-specific events, visual installations and dance for film from the threads of dreams, imaginations and embodied longings. My creative practice is rooted in tender and deeply cherished relationships with other artists and creative folx. I offer audiences immersive art experiences, and they are invited to dive deep and make themselves at home. I make art because that is the essential way in which I grapple with inherent mysteries and ambiguities in life. I am passionate about resilient and evolving ways to share and support art in my communities.
My current research embodies the fluidity and uncertainty of the moment, the visceral thrill of motion, and the beauty and darkness inherent in us all.. Self and surrounding environments as kindred bodies. The visual and kinetic in lively dialogue. What is subtle and detailed accumulates quietly over time. The exquisite pairing of presence and absence.. What is seen, as well as what is invisible to the eye but still palpable. What we conceal and reveal as human beings. The beautifully mutable nature of life.
