Latin American Studies major

I am a poet and multi-media artist working primarily in ceramics, woodwork, bookmaking and photography. I prioritize found objects and material reuse in my work.

The understory

book: wood, paper, prints; shelf: pine scrap board and stainless steel cable

accordion book with purple and red prints of tree rings, resting on a wooden shelf

The book explores deforestation through the discontinuity of tree rings and incongruity of material strength.

Postal code

book: paper, pictorico film, acetate, vellum, waxed thread; shelf: pine scrap board and stainless steel cable

Jewett Hallway Galleries

small sculptural artist's book with many different kinds of printed papers and rolled yellowish paper at center; on a small wood shelf with gray fabric wall

The book is a record of experimental interactions between two penpal friends. The authors exchanged drawings, instructions and several obscured and overt messages written on graph paper over the course of a month.

photo of abstract-looking black, yellow, brown, white streaks with what might be glass or water overlay, in a dark brown wood frame with shallow scalloped edge hanging on gray fabric wall

The photograph and frame question perception through orientation and textural contrast.
