I’m a time-traveling tinkerer; using sculptural installations, object modification, instant film photography, collage, robotics, and time-based media and technology I harness the power of objects to explore and articulate the simultaneity of time, as well as themes in multiplicity, interactivity, form and function, consumption, and the societal and emotional connotations people attach to material objects, derived from their authentic and narrative histories.
