hi. at the current moment, when i'm writing this, i am an artist in Chicago, IL, USA, although i was once an artist in Paris, France, and also once an artist in San Francisco, CA, USA. i work with many different kinds of materials, although it's probably easiest to just call me a painter. i'm interested both in concepts and aesthetics: typically my projects start with some conceptual/theoretical ideas, and then i figure out what kinds of materials and display method will turn the ideas into beautiful aesthetic objects. the ideas themselves are important parts of my projects, not only in helping to shape the final piece, but in being a part of the final piece. however, the ideas are not enough by themselves: i want to make art for people to look at and think about.
past shows/events
this was a solo show at stanford university, in september 2014. this was the first show of my newly completed series, a coherent sum of atomic facts. the series is a collection of digital prints mounted on wood panel and covered in beeswax.
