About the Artist

My work situates electronic machines as a rich transferential field to explore feelings related to intimacy and attachment. Specifically, my work proposes systems of queer intimacy and relating between varying machine parts, viewers and machines, and viewers, themselves, and each other. When making work, I fantasize about electronics living and playing beyond the cycle of production and labor. I hope to offer viewers a way to interact with electronics outside the scope of surveillance and state discipline that surround electronic objects in everyday life.
