Biography

Indigenous Intermedia artist hailing from the Southwest, embedded into the Pacific Northwest. My practice is driven by collaboration, ecological solutions via detritus and a hunter-gatherer ethos. I flow through a plethora of mediums. My background as an agriculturalist is woven deeply into my artistic practice. I am reclaiming my artistic research to re-design the landscape in efforts to exemplify the interconnectedness of beings.

Exploratory endeavors of environment and travel enable my work and relation to others, the natural and spiritual arenas- in pursuit of positive change and consciousness.  I am building on the elevation of my cultural perspective to evoke a powerful sense of nostalgia that emits joy, contemplation, connection, and inspiration. Land is the mesa from which I push and pull my art from. Have a seat at the table with me and lets move art together.
