Since 2010, I’ve collected the scraps from the hand drawn and cut stencils at the core of my studio practice. While this studio detritus could have been discarded, I’m interested in elevating this byproduct of my process by isolating the line, shape, and labor that is embodied within each cutting.

Awesome! Everyday I use Bsky- I fall more in love with the platform. Great settings for feeds and organizing content.

I grew up in the 80’s and 90’s, during the golden era of hip hop, break dancing and graffiti which eventually evolved into street art. After earning an MFA in studio arts from a rigorous university in Boston, it felt good to go back to my roots and pick up street art again.
