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
As an artist, I work in series. Currently, I am exploring ideas, methods, and materials to remove my hand from my work. I have turned to my collections (audio cassettes, vinyl records / albums, magazines, crossword puzzles, dry transfer sheets, etc...) for form and medium. I feel that by doing so, I can explore ideas more thoroughly.
Crosswords is an ongoing series and my longest running. There are roughly 130 completed works thus far. The crossword puzzles have been taken from the New York Times the day a mass shooting or school shooting has happened.
Themes found within my work often deal with anonymity, authorship, surrogates/copies, loss, grief, gun violence (mass / school shootings, gun control), memory, and sentimentality.
