she/her
I am an artist, writer, curator and culture worker with a visual practice that primarily consists of installation, painting, collaborative social practice, performance and video. My work spans a variety of topics and is generally made up of a fluctuating rotation of 3-5 projects. These currently include the shape of ruins, semantic satiation as an analog for endless scroll interfaces and cuttlefish as a muse for navigating the 24-hr news cycle.
The link between these different projects is an interest in the power of multitudes and accumulation, specifically, how stuff deemed “extra”—whether that be the politicized body, the unwanted or the easily forgotten— moves, seeps, multiplies, organizes, defies, conforms or combines within established environments. Sometimes this looks like physical collections of everyday materials, while at other times it resembles tiny rebellions with objects, people or substances acting as agents of mischief breaking free from real or imagined barriers. At the core of my practice lies my fascination with transition through collective movement and weaving interconnected narratives using the language of collections and repetition.
I am grateful to live, work and create on land that is now called Kitchener, Ontario, which is situated on the Haldimand Tract on the traditional territory of the Attawandaron (Neutral), Anishnaabeg, and Haudenosaunee peoples.
Thank you to the following organizations for supporting my practice:
