The Third Time’s a Harm Opens

Well, what a way to open my third exhibition! Thank you to everyone who took time out of their lives, traveled far and of course, purchased a piece from my opening this past Friday. The Third Time's a Harm exhibition is something I haven't stopped working on in months and it was beautiful for the chaos to come together in such a way. Being surrounded by people who appreciate my work was something I am very thankful for. The Fathers of Undoing: A Visitation (my latest video installation) seemed to steal the show creating a video and auditory experience that......

An Honest Flag

An Honest Flag It's not really me to sit idly by. Whenever I feel compelled to do something, I do it. It's easy to feel helpless during these times, but I always fall back on what I do and have to offer. I wanted to create and say something I was feeling and something that in turn may help even but a little. The last two supreme court rulings, the overturning of Roe v Wade followed by allowing teacher/staff lead prayers in public schools, have solidified the urgency for a more accurate flag. "An Honest Flag" was the outcome, something much......

Red Velvet Fluid Vignette

My words so smooth, glossed over your heads with commas scraping whatever is left of you. Commas cut, I'll bleed you wet. Red velvet fluid vignette. You know I've got the combination to the blood bank (anything but) safe between your thighs. So attached to death, advocate for the flies. I'll get out what's good from you, just to be close to your peak moment. And you'll know I control it.Red Velvet Fluid Vignette was also transformed into a spoken word musical composition. I hope you enjoy this writing piece and another taste of why I have been continually referred......
