Artist Statement
I am an artist working at the intersections of performance, text, sculpture, and other time-based media in order to problematize economies of creative production through questions of collaboration, political utilities of the stage, and conditions that determine the afterlives of slavery as it pertains to circumstances of contemporaneity. Through research-based creative processes, I am currently exploring the dialogues of architectures, ecologies, and notions of the human as related to occurrences of climate change, self-governance, and fugitive ontologies.
