Beginnings of a manifesto

I approach creativity as 

- An organic process of discovery and communication; 

- Lived experience research to generate grounded theories of how we are, and could be; 

- Developing a philosophy of how to be;

- And as prefigurative practice for healing, transformation, and wisdom of the interconnected personal, familial, and social. 

Straddling the line between compassion and satire, I work with art as…

- Objects that are artifacts, communication tools, and propaganda.

- Experiences, emotions, and ideas.

- The process of making as politics, therapy, investigation, tension, transformation, and manifestation of potentiality.

- The “work” of art is contextual and determined by who is making, experiencing, retaining, and discarding, in any combination, and shifts at any given moment.

- Life. And life is art.
