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 current work explores the effects of weather as ephemeral, mundane records of our daily lives. In addition, these two related bodies of work explore the atmosphere and atmospheric perspective.
‘The Vapors so Whiten’ series pulls imagery out of layers of dusty pigment applied to toned paper. Small in scale, these works depict either cars driving in and out of visibility on roads with no beginning or end. With no points of reference, it is often uncertain in which direction the vehicles are heading. In the ‘Car, Eyes’ series, floating cars bob amidst unidentified bodies of water; adrift, they are rendered useless.
I engage with qualities of atmosphere through slow and muted approaches. The laborious, hand-made nature of my work leads to a more embodied experience of what the weather means and how it affects us physically and imaginatively while the indecipherable atmosphere I conjure from multiple layers of pencil marks coupled with hazy imagery leads, ultimately, to a kind of disorienting opacity.
