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
This series, Data Petals, came about in 2019 while I was digitizing analog film for museums and collections as an archivist. The use of the scanner sparked a new direction, opening an exploration into new kinds of mark-making that could be scanned into a digital image file. I also began creating objects from old photographs and negatives, then photographing them, creating a circular narrative that turns in on itself. I had tired of photography's clean, smooth surface and needed to put myself physically in the process.
