Art is Humanity

To inspire a new understanding of what it means to be human, my art practice – digital art and performance – explores the interplay between identity, history, and culture. I am greatly influenced by the visionary writer James Baldwin, who advocated for prioritizing humanity by posing bold questions: Who defines who we are? Who are we beyond cultural categories?

What does a new vocabulary that includes the human race sound like?

I have led culture/humanity group dialogues at notable venues, including the New School, New York City, and the Portland Art Museum.

I think of myself as an artist who writes, primarily about art and culture.

I attended the Santa Monica College of Design, Art, and Architecture, founded by MacArthur Fellow, Joan Abrahamson. My work has been exhibited in solo and group exhibitions in Los Angeles, CA, Portland, OR, and Seattle, WA.

Workshops

In an intimate group setting, participants are invited to explore what humanity means to them. Compelling works of art are used as dialogue prompts.

 
 

Consulting/Coaching

Humanity First is a highly individualized intensive which helps leaders and decision makers reassess identity and culture from the perspective of our complex humanity.

I have worked with decision makers from Google, the Portland Art Museum, and leaders from philanthropic organizations.
