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
I make sound, painting, and sculpture that interrogate how people and places are receptive–and antagonistic–to different histories.
My projects often begin with a sustained engagement with a site or memory, and the results of my practice are more like artifacts, traces, or clues to an ongoing event than discrete, “finished” objects. I’m interested in how a place can persist in memory even when it’s outwardly destroyed or made distant.
I think a lot about New England and the wounds of English colonization which tear through the land here. And about diaspora, displacement, statelessness, and Jewishness.
In my sound work, I tend to focus on private moments of transmission that resist nationalistic monopolies on space, narrative, and history. For example, lullabies – a site where political, linguistic, and generational borders become porous. I eschew manipulation of recorded audio, instead treating composition as a question of when, where, and how to reproduce sections of time.
