My approach to art has always embraced errors, overconsumption and waste in a lens that seeks to transform. I often find myself working with lights, sound, and machinery to explore these ideas.

My most recent project, Conduit-1 explores the history of Detroit’s automotive industry by transforming broken car parts into a vessel for energy. Conduit-1 transmutes sound input into bright lights, a transfer of energy.
