Hi Daniel. im scared of a lot of things and a lot of things make me anxious. but i am grateful for my ability to love.

this isnt an artist statement, by the way. Elizabeth I know youre reading this and u used a previous version of this page as an artist bio/statement but I didnt consider it that. Oh well. maybe it doesnt matter. I dont know what my artist bio is anyway! Heres the one ive been working with:

Where I am now, I am interested in the boundaries between personhood and machinery, care and labour, invisibility and agency, and queerness/failure and professionalism. I am also very interested in LOVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Friendship, care, hanging out, and gift giving are essential to my practice. I choose materials that can evoke an intimacy (or, the opportunity of intimacy) with participants. This has looked like websites, steel, simple electronics–in conversation with– fibre, flowers, dogs, handwritten letters, funerals, birthdays, and heart shaped stickers. My work is informed by Jack Halberstalm’s The Queer Art of Failure and Sara Ahmed’s Queer Phenomenology as well as laughing with and listening to my friends

im not really happy with it yet.

the other week, I went around putting up posters and I put one on this pole at this intersection where someone else put up a missing persons poster. the next time I came by, both posters were taken down. I dont know i just think thats a little fucked up that someone cares so much about private property that tehy would take down a missing persons poster.

below is a picture I took of myself like 15 minutes ago. at 10:00pm on Aug 29 2024. The grape is the size of my head

Im not aware of any enemies I may have
