About

I am an interdisciplinary artist whose practice often produces fiber, sculpture, and print works. While exploring these expansive media, I ground myself in textile traditions, and particularly weaving. I understand weaving as a feminist methodology which allows me to transcend binary modes of thinking and to conspire with tools and materials to become something more than we are alone.

I use my artistic practice to investigate my relationship with the rest of this animate world. Through research and experimentation I seek to push the limits of my own knowledge, exploring scientific understandings alongside social histories, spiritual relationships, and imagined futures. Focusing on abundant materials, I become introduced to place through trash, weeds, invasive plants, food scraps, litter, and more. I am interested in using the strategies of reuse, repair, and maintenance often exemplified in textile handicrafts as frameworks for approaching both material relationships and social obligations. Attending with care to undesirable, overgrowing, and polluting materials is my strategy to re-enchant my relationships with objects, places, and the more-than-human world.

I completed my B.A. in Sociology at Colorado College in 2020, focusing my degree on community-based research methods and food justice. During this time I also studied printmaking and weaving, and became a student docent at the Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center. I worked for several years in community food access and outdoor education in Lewiston, Maine, where I have also exhibited work at the Munka Gallery. My educational work has included collaborating with teaching artists to integrate creativity into K-12 life sciences curriculum. In 2024 I completed a two-month weaving intensive at the Penland School of Craft, and I am currently pursuing an M. A. in Art & Ecology at the Burren College of Art in Ireland.
