I strive to represent alternative versions of the natural world and the complex and inextricable relationships between people, social history, and the local environment. While my earlier work depicts the violence, confusion, and intimacy that occurs through the hybridization of human and natural worlds, my more recent work involves "experiments with participation."

Using trash and waste materials, I create miniature dioramas and installations where viewers are invited to interact with the pieces. In some installations, any piece of art can be taken away at any time by any one. In others, any one can take any thing as long as they leave something of equal or greater value behind. In some installations, people can break things. In others, they can create objects to add to the exhibition. A cross between environmental advocacy, field research, and a “laboratory” experiment, each of these installations provides data about how people take up, challenge, and expand the "rules" of the exhibition.
