Community Raingarden
These are the pictures from the community raingarden planting day. I was lucky enough to be a part of the design and planning for this project, as part of one of my KCAI classes. It's really great to see the time and effort of everyone involved is starting to pay off.

Blacksburg
I consider Blacksburg one of the few places I call home, and the shootings on Monday have left me stunned. I know the Blacksburg community is strong enough to get through this.

Recent Acquisition
Purchased this Matt Krawcheck piece at the Grothus and Pearl Gallery. It's called "Appointing those individuals fit to serve on the board of directors for the Dept of Crucial Specificities"

New Installation
“When you first walk you have to push yourself through the soft squishy sacks. Then your feet sink in and the sound changes…”
This installation grew out of a need to create a space to perform in. In planning I kept being pulled towards warm, enclosed spaces and finally decided to create a womb like environment. I wanted to work with an existing space and choose a corner of the painting building. I did a performance last year in a corner, where I hump the corner and seem to be in time out. Moving away from that I wanted to push myself literally through a corner. My new animations have begun to focus on the female form while exploring line and shape, and to bridge my performances together with my animations I decided to make the outside of the space extremely vaginal.
The structure is made of foam and wood and the floor is made of layers of memory foam. While my performance piece is still in the works, I plan to change the environment of the piece until it’s taken down.
