I just got back from a residency in rural Finland where I worked on two new bodies of work. That's where the footage for this collection comes from.

In the fall I'll have a solo show at SEDIMENT in Richmond VA that will be video installation.

I am probably most proud of ISSUES which I edit and design with my pal Sarah Faith Gottesdiener. It's a publication centered around a queer and feminist perspective of design, art and culture. So far we've put out 2 issues. Third will launch for the LA Art Book Fair. It's really an opportunity for us to showcase work by people we respect and feel should be seen and heard.

What I have available to me at the time of making it. Mostly laptop, wacom tablet, photoshop, illustrator, premiere, some weird iphone apps, my phone camera. Sticks, plastic boondoggle cord. Dollar store stuff. Stickers. Acrylic. Whatever makes sense.




I like to make due with what is available to me and make with urgency — that's key. My process involves lots of folders of things. I archive everything and come back to those bits and pieces often. Most of the time I am not sure when I am working and not working. Everything is pretty fluid. I collect language.
