I’m an artist and creative strategist exploring the role the arts and artists play in transforming our cities, our relationships, and ourselves using sculpture, video and paint.
My approach to public art is research-based and site-specific. I try to understand the history of the space and talk with it’s inhabitants about what they would like to see and/or experience in the future. I then propose a project that reflects back the space’s history and it’s unique characteristics while offering suggestions for how people can be or act differently in that space.
It’s my goal to deliver a project that offers an alternative to our consumptive behaviors and fears, essentially to spark joy and spontaneity in our everyday lives using whatever methods I can including humor, simulation and meditative observation.
Every project is different and that’s what keeps me engaged in public art. I look forward to working with new and diverse communities and expanding my knowledge of what creates engaging public art…and expanding the definition of public art along the way!
