artist statement
Each of us has at least one language embedded in the structures of the brain and body, a personal language of gesture, symbol, and emotive association created by biography, decisionmaking, rationale, and the mechanisms of personal obsession or its lack.
I am deeply interested in the languages of the unconscious mind, the arational logic that underlies and drives our lives. On my better days I'm knee-deep in the vocabulary of the personal and transpersonal unconscious mind.

Years examining the logic of myth, fairytale, the body, and dream provide endless raw material for artmaking
I pull teeth from the world and turn them into lucky charms. I make poems in a futile effort to lift the finger marks from people's hearts.

I make animation-based video for use as projection installations, as films, as environments for other live performances. I compose and perform music and poetry. My first book of poetry, Spiritual Side Effects, will be published by Six Gallery Press in 2008. I make books. I've been known to draw, paint, lithograph, and use other analog media. I like making multiples and editions. On occasion, I make installations. I work collaboratively and alone.
