During the span of my lifetime I have witnessed the ever-increasing presence of computers within the domestic space as well as the integration of computing into my world. My accumulation of gadgets and my own reliance on algorithms to make choices has made my day-to-day life faster, easier, and decidedly more efficient. Whereas our digital experiences were once dictated by our domestic lives (with terms such as “desktop,” “file,” folder,” and “homepage” being coined to ease the user into his or her initial digital experience), I have begun to witness domestic life become dictated by my digital one.
My work explores the ways in which the digital and domestic collide and the inherent tension that exists between the two. My aim is to create tongue-in-cheek works that read as a loose narrative that do not necessarily have a resolution; rather, they leave the viewer trying to piece together what the choice and position of these objects or forms represents.
Born and raised in Canton, Massachusetts, I received a degree in Visual Art (with Honors) and Applied Mathematics from Brown University and currently live in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
