You can’t amplify a voice you haven’t listened to.

I started as a painter. Over twenty years, the canvas expanded — into community work, public installation, city-scale curation. Now all of it comes with me.

I work from every angle this field has — the walls, the grants, the artists, the neighborhoods. The approach is the same at every scale: get to know a place before you make anything for it.

Everything I make starts with listening. To a place, a person, a space. I look at it from many angles before I begin, and what happens during the making stays visible in the work — the decisions, the reversals, the accumulation. That history is part of what gives it life. The work tends to have immediate visual appeal — something you can respond to without any background in art — and more to find every time you return to it. Different people see different things in it.
