Select Artwork

Stack of Moves – Stack of Moves (2013) is a work that was presented by the Pitt Gallery as part of the No Wave Festival. The work included elements of modern dance and explorations of movement in a guided class led by Justine Chambers.[5]

Apollo Hall – This work was shown at the Or Gallery (2004) and used the lobby of the gallery to create an immersive experience that uses lighting, texture, sound, furniture and flat sculptural elements. The show was an immersive installation, complete with, sound, lighting, furniture and flat sculptural elements. The installation created a noticeably disconcerting space that called viewers’ subjecthood into question.[6]
