Welcome to my website.
This March, one of my works will be shown in a group show at the contemporary art gallery Zone in Osaka, Japan. They are located in a marketplace in Minoh-city where people visit for daily shopping. Here is an excerpt from their mission statement. "Everyday life space becomes art space. Art space becomes everyday life space. There are no boundaries between life and art ... we want people in this community to be aware of how interesting and accessible contemporary art is... Our gallery's year-round programming features solo and group exhibitions by regional, national and international visual artists." I am very excited my work will be included in their space!

My work explores viewers' awareness and their surroundings through lights, reflections, and shadows. One of my installation will be shown in a book, LAND/ART New Mexico, by Radius Books, culminating book, published in Spring 2010.
It will feature documentation of projects and exhibitions as well as an introduction by Bill Gilbert and Kathleen Shields and essays by Lucy Lippard, William L. Fox, Nancy Marie Mithlo and MaLin Wilson-Powell. The book will be published by Radius Books in partnership with 516 ARTS, the Albuquerque Museum and the University of New Mexico Art Museum.
