I make work based in dialogical relationships.
Over the past 10 years I have lived in 10 cities or towns in 4 countries. This nomadic living has influenced my pull towards invitational arts practices. I am interested in making experiences with strangers and with members of my long and short term communities, and in creating situations that allow people to engage with each other in ways that both interrupt and enter the everyday. I am interested in crossing borders and making connections between people, fields and forms, and bringing these interactions into shared and public spaces.
