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
Traces of us linger in the physical world, even in our absence. There is an evocative nature to domestic objects and spaces—items within homes hold the residual energy of lives lived long after people are gone. My work depicts ordinary objects from living rooms which hold the remaining radiance and tenderness of the departed. I work with materials that have weight to them to ground ephemeral concepts into an artwork that is physically solid. The artwork holds the ideas and feelings which are light and almost impossible to contain—similar to how homes can hold the lingering domestic presence of the departed. Contour lines move across the surface of the works like phantoms; other times a contour line defines the edge of a work, (articulating a wing or hand), as a fully present body.
