I am a visual artist, but writing has become a large part of my studio practice. I am currently developing a body of work (including drawings, prints, and personal essays) investigating groupie culture and the functional value of fandom that lies at the intersection of music and visual art, as mythologized through music videos, ‘rock docs’, and promotional photography. My concern with making idol worship a productive activity has coincided with my recent move to Los Angeles.
My artwork has recently been exhibited at Vita Art Center (Ventura), Heaven Gallery (Chicago), Lloyd Dobler Gallery (Chicago), and Galerie Nord (Berlin). Solo exhibitions include "Honor Your Poets," at The Franklin, (Chicago) and "Just A Phase," at Rena Sternberg Gallery (Glencoe). In 2013, I was awarded the Ox-Bow Scholarship, funded by the Joan Mitchell Foundation. I currently live and work in Los Angeles.
