Artist Statement

My work is Queerness incarnate – infinite. Time is cyclical. Life is cyclical. A circle – A shape without beginning, without end, a space sustaining. Worlds and Spells are not so different. Personally, Queerness assembles realities, identities, worlds; it is the innate understanding of situation in the universe – in nature. A state of flux. Queerness is Magick. Working automatically bits and pieces of experience, ebb and flow together like the topography of planets. Impossible to decipher where thoughts, lines, beings start and another ends. Witches have long used circles in their work. Circles are power. These traditions have continued – hard drives store data on circles of silver, central processing units push current through circuits like blood pumping through a body. Combining drawing, ritual, and experimental technologies, I seek to inhabit and invite into a place where the Eldritch is alive – A space where change is possible.

Reagents are scavenged and transformed through alchemical processes – shifting the way these objects exist. Installations channel Sound – Frequencies become pathways to facilitate transformation in the cells of bodies and brains. Transmitting the shared experience of Queerness and creating a narrative that is not based on othering but on sharing. All of it, a circle.
