Biography

Performance is at the root of my practice — using visceral, often physically extreme actions designed to dissolve the rational and reconnect with the nonhuman world, both external and within the self. Working with everyday objects, natural materials, and the body itself, I make work that sits at the slippery edge between familiar and other, dead and alive, the miraculous and the monstrous. My work challenges anthropocentrism, the taming of age and gender, and the conventions that keep us walking down the middle of our lives.
