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 is based in part on images of naturist resorts and hotels that have been culled from internet searches. The paintings use a formal, gridded language that draws upon mosaics, drawing, and science fiction in equal measure. The hotels, resorts, and other naturist spaces are rendered in various degrees of fidelity, with an attention that wavers from faithful reproduction of salient architectural details to outright improvisation that often veers into anthropomorphization. This creates a balance within each of the works between articulating the demands of faithful reproduction and responding to the pictorial and formal possibilities of the canvas at hand.
