Oil painter and collage artist based in Chicago, IL.

My practice is a calendar of emotional experience.

A recording of the external technosphere organized into fragments and combined with blooming imagination.

Images bristle bright with need and color.

Aggression filtered and concentrated; a reflection of forever wars and the helplessness of a child tucked away in crevasses.

It is in an invitation to mull, to contemplate.

Physical objects puzzled together from nonthings: memories, tangents, the digital reality in which I and the rest of humanity spend innumerable hours.

As a collective, gamers have logged more time in Call of Duty than the entire history of planet Earth.

My home country has been obliterating battlefields since the day I was born.

What does that do to a civilian populace?

The gamification of reality is enticing; but the cost is exponential.

As the hum of blue light infects all thinking organisms, what is it that you see?
