| My
work intersects essayistic writing and media and material experimentation to generate new techniques and concepts with which to inhabit the lived ecology. I make openings in familiar modes of movement and recognition by tending to and amplifying tensions between surface and substance, form and function in ceramic, drawing, painting, performance and video processes. The evolution of the research also operates through series and the way the specificity with which formal, affective and conceptual resonances emerge between diverse iterations makes thinkable and feelable new concepts of corporeality. This process activates a plastic, heterogeneous and multiply distributed subjectivity. In
the Research section of this website I engage the virtual affects associated with familiar forms and modes of inscription to modulate the durations, dimensions, atmospheres and tensions of inhabited experience. This experimental process troubles the stability of inhabited tendencies of recognition, empirical dimensions and the bodily containment of the perceiving subject as a means for arriving at new concepts of corporeality. The
works in the Artwork section conflate the mundane, fanciful and functional through processes of staging, assembling and fabricating domestic objects, towards generating emergent narrative, aesthetic and technical potentials. Some examples explicitly engage with the aesthetic, material and technical histories of the decorative arts to complicate the status of Romantic material history and the contained, Romantic subject. | ||
