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 work is informed by two contradicting ideas about our relationship to material and the Earth: While ‘each force evolves a form’ suggests something inevitable about the ideas that appear through a focused practice of making, I’m equally dedicated to unintentionality and the results of playful invention that similarly tie us to long lineages of material culture across millennia.
Though traditional techniques are present throughout my work, I’m often guided by an impulse to reduce processes to even less efficient and more time-consuming ways of operating on material. By consuming time and attention differently, I’m interested in work where the invention or uncovering of form and pattern might be attributed to an alternate, but not unrelated, fork in the road of craft tradition such as pottery or vernacular architecture. In this way, I’m motivated by an effort to be a part of a conversation around our relationship to scale as humans, from lineages to individual personalities, universals to specifics, and from models for world-building to the creation of intimate forms and techniques.
