My work explores processes and connections between material and habit. I examine this through the function of narrative, where performance (such as reading) signals desire. I interpret this process through the simple activity of reading, without interpretation or predetermined pathways to meaning. Through the movements of territorialization and de-territorialization (a movement away from concepts or ideas packaged as discrete units with singular meanings) it is the desire for the textual elements of narrative that become the exposed story or even the “desiring machine” that can produce a story.
Like a narrative written only with verbs and conjunctions, the work “Untitled; Anti-Oedipus” explores the body without organs. Made of wood and books, it flows in all directions. The body becomes fluid, and connections are composed of, and unfolded by, unconscious devices. It is a plot without a face or protagonist, a machine that functions as the stage on which descriptive narrative is resisted. This faceless “play” is then performed by the viewer’s arousal and desire.
2010,Episteme
My interest in fabricating stories continues to grow into an investigation of objects that embody a desire to “be” something--objects that exist between the tensions of internal narratives and external spaces. The title“Episteme” references an epistemological structure and its connections/disconnections to real architectural space.
