Solo exhibition at the Rosefsky Gallery at Binghamton University in Binghamton, New York, 2024.
This ongoing collection of work visualizes the breach of physical presence and spiritual being into a virtual space, and the resulting data loss that occurs through this faulty back-and-forth translation process. The work exposes a sterile and artificial experience that confuses our understanding of reality by the virtualization of familiar physical objects and motifs, by exploiting false information, and by critically analyzing notions of the digital self. As Ai and chat programs become prominent tools for image creation, manipulation, and experimentation, the work aims to catalog a bygone period of virtual exploration.
Framed book pages with screenprinted Phototex sticker, 2024.
Framed book pages from two different copies of The Spenders by Harry Leon Wilson, 13" x 20", 2024.
The title of the work is taken from the 1902 book The Spenders by Harry Leon Wilson, where, in a fit of frustration stemming from an argument with an elder counterpart, the younger debater closes his eyes and imagines a future where he is able to win the contentious conversation and emerge with self-actualization and power. This work was created after countless hours scouring free content on archive.org in a practice of looking backward while walking imaginatively forward.
8-page Xerox and screenprinted books with laser printed stickers and Risograph, 18" x 24", 2020.
This is a series of ten large-scale, wall-hung publications displaying research and critical inquiry into themes of death and life, physical versus virtual self, propaganda and rhetoric, symbology, slavery and captivity, and hope and depression. The work explores an ever-changing idea of truth and being. Each piece is created from individual Xerox prints which are drawn onto and printed on before being bound with loop staples and exhibited horizontally, allowing viewers to flip through the pages of each work.
