I’m an interdisciplinary artist working in painting, ceramics, and installation. My work investigates the body's relationship to and navigation through landscapes. I'm curious about the ways nature can be known, embodied, and/or projected upon – a stage set for ephemeral but recurrent human questions. I explore these themes by creating paintings and objects, and curating outdoor art shows, including one in which viewers had to hike out to coordinates provided. My work has been exhibited throughout Southern California, Boston, and internationally in Melbourne and Finland. In the classroom, students can expect an encouraging environment with lots of space for dialogue and critique. Students in my drawing classes will develop skills around ‘deep looking,’ rendering, and developing confidence in mark making.
