ARTIST STATEMENT 

My research and artistic practice examines the political, scientific, and economic systems surrounding energy production through both a global and local lens. I am interested in how these networks of power generation are intrinsically tied to the landscape.  I also explore how the American culture of progress impacts ecological systems
and the contemporary condition of a planetary environmental consciousness. 

My work creates a moment for conversations surrounding what it means to be an energy consumer and how it relates to our abstract notions of nature and landscape.   I am interested in questions that contemplate land use, ownership and boundary allocation.  Reflecting on the absurd, the practical, and the inevitable, I create artwork that navigates failed inherited systems and the promise of creativity and invention.
