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
My work, consisting of large installations and small embroidered portraits, remixes various textile methods with facets of queer and trans identity, culture, and activism. With flexibility, adaptability, and resourcefulness as a foundation, I use tools and techniques such as toy knitting machines, single-strand hand embroidery, a sock making machine, quilting, and appliqué. I find that issues of marginality I encounter as a gender non-conforming non-binary person often mirror the positioning of textile and craft within visual culture. These mutually reflective margins provide a site for radical possibility and transformation through materiality. My love of problem solving enables consistent and often unexpected outcomes in ways I do not always anticipate, but enthusiastically welcome.
