Hello! I'm an experimental filmmaker, photographer, and mixed media artist from Manhattan, New York. I graduated from Swarthmore College with a B.A. in Studio Art and a minor in Computer Science.
my Inspirations include (but are not limited to) The changing, oscillating, dual nature of reality brought on by the digital world's pervasion (/perversion?) of the physical, and the interplay between 2d, 3d, and 4d spaces we increasingly interact with. The self and memory can no longer be cleanly separated from those of others, and our finite, physical senses are being overloaded by a hyperreal illusion of infinite information from the digital world and the corporations that maintain and profit off it. i believe Photo and video are the mediums through which this techno-psychic frontier will be explored most effectively; i use these mediums to explore The augmentation and simultaneous decay of the human mind, what that looks like, and more importantly, what it feels like.
