antARcTica

I’m excited to be part of Annie Young’s Exhibit antARcTica exhibiting at the Ames Center in Burnsville running from August 29 to November 5, 2022, with an opening October 1st at 5:30 pm!

The above images are part of the work Annie and I created in collaboration to document her time in Antartica, or as she calls it “ journey to rock bottom.” Annie has collaborated with a number of amazing artists to create this exhibition. Please take the time to check out here description of the project here: annieyoungarts.com/antarctica

In addition to the collaborations, each artist is also exhibiting their own works. I will be showing three new pieces in my Contact Sheet series where I’ve created large two-dimensional sculptures of ephemeral photos such as contact sheets, photo booth photos, and school pictures. The portraits in this series are all very personal to me and I consider it an immense privilege to showcase them with this exhibition!
