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.

STATEMENT OF WORK
Along commutes and perambulations, I collect bits of detritus and chronicle the road markings and architectural features of my surroundings. I then meticulously reproduce the industrial relics through sculpture and careful craft techniques such as weaving and felting. By creating multiple iterations of the same form, I transform the monotony of daily commutes into meditations on the cultural values assigned to objects, modes of production and consumption, and how public indications of climate change, economic segregation, and devotion are as ubiquitous as they are commonly overlooked.
In all of my work, the formal conventions of industry, mass media and consumer society collide with the more metaphysical aspects of knowing and believing: hands-on craft, repetition, beauty and ritual.
