About

I’m an artist, writer, and exhibition organizer.

My work has appeared in exhibitions at the FCCA in Prague, YYZ Artist’s Outlet in Toronto, Printed Matter in New York, and the Museo de la Ciudad de Querétaro in Mexico, amongst other venues. My writing has appeared in Art Papers, C Magazine, Peripheral Review, and Yishu Journal of Contemporary Chinese Art, amongst other platforms and publications.

In 2019 I launched an ongoing curatorial project, Storage (3127), which has featured the work of Alan Ruiz, Jason Hirata, Leigh-Ann Pahapill, Claire Pentecost, Matthew Friday, Fereshteh Toosi, Sheena Hozsko, and Jessica Vaughn.

Work

CV @ YYZ Artist’s Outlet (Toronto, ON)
09/16/2017–12/2/2017

The paired exhibitions Artist’s Rendering and CV were produced for galleries situated in formerly industrial buildings (Gatineau, Québec and Toronto, Ontario, respectively). These projects assembled a constellation of materials relating to the recuperation of early 20th-century industrial spaces as 21st-century cultural spaces, addressing the aestheticization of labor in post-industrial neoliberal culture.
