Artist Statement
Albert Einstein once said, “Logic will get you from A to B, but imagination will take you everywhere.” That statement is very representative of how I approach my work as a collaborator. Logic will tell you exactly how to solve the issue at hand, but imagination will tell you how to alter that logic to better solve the issue for theatrical purposes. My knowledge of fashion history and garment construction answer the former. The later can be solved in a myriad of ways—mashing up periods to create a new aesthetic, incorporating contemporary features or technologies, or creatively engineering an element that seems to defy the laws of logic or physics unlocking the imagination of the audience.
The laws of physics govern our lives, and science is all around us—including the arts. As a lover of science and an advocate for STEAM (science, technology, engineering, ART, and mathematics), I actively look for ways to include science and technology in my work.
I seek to collaborate on art that is provocative, sparks curiosity, inspires conversation, and opens eyes to new aspects and possibilities.
Current & Upcoming Projects
Due to COVID-19, all public projects have been postponed. I am currently working on creating new digital designs for print on demand. My “Witty Fashion History” series can be found on Threadless, and new designs are coming to my Spoonflower shop in August!
