With my work (sculptures, paintings, drawings and text), the archival form becomes the groundwork for storytelling and poetry, subverting the idea that the archive is something statically formal, bureaucratic or paramount to its anarchival byproducts. My archive creates an evolving network within the exhibition space, where meaning is continually wrapped around the archive and subsequent projects through a non-hierarchical gathering of materials, text and images.eninstallationpaintingsculpturecollectionsarchivepoetryGertrude SteinFrancis PongeJacques Derridamaximalismfound objectsBarbara BloomJunkDrawerPhantomDressUpSoiréeMaster Thesis
