A collection of work using interactive connection between cyber-content and physical spaces to transfer site-specific ideas.
On Saturday, June 4th we attended Northern Spark in Minneapolis, MN. This was a night of art—beginning at sundown and ending at sun-up on Sunday the 5th. With tons of art projects, performances, and shows going on we participated in the evening's festivities applying QR code stickers in the immediate vicinity of the works we visited. Each QR code, printed on brightly colored labels, took curious participants to a webpage containing and animated .gif. Each .gif used iconic internet vernacular and images to illustrate some statement in response to the work: WIN, FAIL, DISLIKE, MINDBLOWING, STUFF WHITE PEOPLE DO....Fine Arts, Interactive, Internet Art2011 -
Digital prints, screenprinted plexiglass
21" x 17"
2011
This piece is a series of five digital prints layered under screenprinted plexiglass. The screenprinted graphics are derived from maps from Google. The arrows, white tracks, and tilted rectangles are Internet icons and are familiar references in the digital acts of exploration, virtual “travel” and orientation. One can street-level experience almost anyplace online—explore new territories, visit old familiar places (and the experiences that accompanied them) and gain “greater” perspective on one’s current location and surroundings. The center three background color images are of landscapes that vary in level of pixilation—the abstract images grow increasingly clearer. The images on either end are black and white and more photographic in quality. These images set a chronological pace to the piece and serve as the subtle beginning and end of the explorative journey.Fine Arts, Mixed Media2011 -
26 hand-sewn hardcover artist's books
6.125" x 4.375" x various depths
2011
The Facebook Visual Reference Collection consists of 26 handsewn hardcover artist’s books ranging in length from 76 to 412 pages. The books contain page after page of a single Facebook profile picture. The pictures were gathered through random searches and arranged into emerging themes. These themes define the content of each book and include people taking pictures of themselves in mirrors, middle fingers and people with exaggerated mustaches. Through this project I was exploring identity performance on Facebook. Why are these specific themes, actions, and images so prevalent? How does the individual fragment that is one profile photo—participate in larger sociological and cultural discussions of representation, individuality and homogeneity?Fine Arts, Book Arts2011 -
Video projections, digital prints on vellum
36" x 44"
2011
This piece is made up of two videos projected from two projectors onto opposite sides of a centered screen. The screen is suspended in the air by thread and is made out of three layers of frosted vellum pressed together. One of the sheets is printed from edge to edge with an image of a landscape. Another sheet is printed with a small square landscape image centered in the middle. The projections play on both sides of the screens interacting with each other and the printed graphics in different ways. Both of the videos are pixilated low-quality silent loops of relatively abstracted landscapes moving by at different paces—one in slow motion and the other sped up. The horizon line of the movie crosses paths with the printed images. Both videos are disrupted in regular increments fading brighter and darker, which reveals shifting interactions between the projected images and the printed graphics. The piece is repetitive and fragmented, but it is also ethereal and contemplative.Fine Arts, Video Arts2011 -
Digital photographs, screenprinted layered plexiglass, shelves, cards with printed excerpts from Facebook memorial pages
18" x 16"
2011
Memories, Memorials & Messages is a series of five framed digital prints under screenprinted plexiglass. Each image is different—including an intensely dark image of a bedroom, an abstracted screenshot of a Facebook memorial page, matted pages of a Bible, a photograph of a tree diffused under frosted vellum film, and an abstracted section of skyscape. Fragments of hand-drawn lines float above the surface of the images as if to trace, define or describe something in the image. Each framed element is accompanied by a small shelf containing a card with a message. The text is one or two sentence entries from the Not Titled online memorial piece. The text accompanying the tree image reads; “I miss you bro. I wish we didn’t go there.” With this piece I was interested in drawing a line between a more literal element that is directly collected from everyday digital social spaces (the text) and ethereal images that represent internalization, processing and meditation.Fine Arts, Mixed Media2011 -

This book is 56 pages of rambling narrative that loosely tells the story of my Facebook friends during the fall of 2009. During this time period I collected status updates and reorganized them by the emerging categories. Each chapter was then titled and comprised of posts relating to a given topic. The result is a documentation of the “never ending” story in process. Each member contributes a thoughtless fragment of personal expression and all of the entries weave together to form a collective run on narrative in which each recorded act of individuality blends together to create a profoundly generic work.Fine Arts, Book Arts2010 -
