BIO

I am primarily a performance artist, with most of my concentration in acting and writing/directing. After I got my undergrad degree in theater I moved to chicago for the art scene. I’m always looking for new projects and found objects. Since I moved here I wanted to do something exactly like this with my friends, but it never lined up. I’ve been experimenting with sculpture lately, but am most lacking the practice and guidance!


WHAT I MAKE

I would love to make some kind of sculpture, puppetry, something physical, weird and in-between worlds.


INSPIRED BY

Abstract art/I just love colors and shapes you know??

The Neofuturists, rough house theater are my two fav theaters in chicago

Honesty within the work (something real within a performance) 

Psychedelic art 

Surreal/bizarre/a lil scary,?

Performance art/performance art as protest


EXPLORING:

For the past year I’ve been running “survivor” competitions over zoom and posting them to YouTube, as well as running dungeons and dragons professionally. I’ve been wanting to get more into visual art however, I love making little paintings or sculptures for my apartment.
