Artist Registry
The White Columns Curated Artist Registry is an online platform for emerging and under-recognized artists to share images and information about their respective practices. The Registry seeks to create a context for artists who have yet to benefit from wider critical, curatorial or commercial support. To be eligible, artists cannot be affiliated with a commercial gallery in New York City.

Tumbling Tumbleweed
2020The tumbleweed is synonymous with the American west. A symbol of rootlessness, freedom, the wandering cowboy but this wind driven plant originated in the mountains of Russia. Also called the "Russian Thistle" or "Wind Witch" the tumbleweed only just appeared in the United States in the 1880s. It's believed that tumbleweed seeds traveled in a batch of flaxseed flour that shipped from Europe to South Dakota and within 15 years the plants had already rolled as far west as California and crossed the northern border into Canada.

Nothing Left to Take Away
The video was shot in a costco parking lot during the winter. Snow plows had cleared the parking lot for cars. This very practical act resulted in creating a beautiful landscape. There were snowy mountains where normally there was just grey asphalt. The head ware in the video is made of bread. I wore it for the seagulls to eat. I expected them to eat it right away, the first time but it took them a while to get use to me.Added on: June 28, 2020
