Artist Statament

The movement from what is called paranormal to what is necessarily constructed as normal is often a violent act of inclusion. And. The violent act of exclusion from life—that is itself most often, in some form or another, deemed death—remains the non-movement that moves us most. But what of the interim—that blur we name body, a prosthesis in perpetual decay, a relay delayed, waylaid and alchemied or readied for display? Like all ritual in which culture is born, my work lives in this channel. If performance is a time based medium, the performer is a medium based in time. My practice is a constant play of déjà vu and jamais vu in the déjà-rêvé

we dream life. Art is medicine. There are stakes greater than life or death. My work starts there with life and death, or healing. The world is always ending. While we live may we love.
