Coffee & Cigarettes After Class [NYC, 1991]. 2018. Collage on canvas board. 4 x 6”

I am an American, multi-disciplinary artist.  I commonly work in collage, sculpture, and video.  Much of my work possesses narratives of “autobiographical fiction”.  These narratives blend events, dreams, and desires I experienced as an LGBTQ+  youth and young adult, during the 1980’s and 1990’s, with threads of fictions influenced through the literature, music, film, art, and other expressions of culture I absorbed during this time.  Escapism was a panacea to the isolation and fear I felt during my youth.  The world around me seemed steeped in conformity, homophobia, and later, darkness as AIDS began its ravage of the LGBTQ+  community I hoped to become part, and made the expression of love seem toxic.


I live and create in San Francisco Bay, CA.
