Conceptual Materials Social Practice Artist
My social practice builds community through conversation about shared experiences… via story ribbons tied to a net.
Free Your Mind focuses on exposing microaggressions. The community is invited to share a personal experience with bias to release this interaction from their personal narrative.
So far more than 5000 story ribbons have been collected.
Meet Sylvan Goldman, inventor of the shopping cart.
Oklahoma grocery store magnate Sylvan Goldman invented the shopping cart in 1936 — and went on to become a shopping-cart manufacturer and benefactor of many Oklahoma charities and institutions.

The construction over at Art House’s new home base on Marin Blvd is finally complete. The first official show to show off the finished digs opens this week.
I’ll be showing Chutes & Ladders, which is most fitting, because Andrea McKenna donated the net I used for this piece when Art House was moving out of their last location…
I can’t wait to experience all the art and see all my Jersey City Art folks at the Opening reception. Other participating artists include Tim Daly, Loura van der Meule, Lisa Ficarelli-Halpern, Troy Jones, Mark Kurdziel and Candy Le Sueur.
Congratulations Art House, welcome home!

I like to use a mix of materials and narratives to imprint memories of racial trauma onto my work as a means of release.
Where is Malibu Christie?
I think she is in need of a hot pink and purple fringe at the bottom.
What do you think?
I forgot how much I love making playlists until I started working on this one.
