Portfolio Example & Artist Statement

My art incorporates the use of both traditional and emerging technologies across multiple media including jewelry making, metalwork, engraving, graphics, photography, presentation lighting and video productions and videography. I specialize in blending cultural iconography into contemporary forms. I have exhibited in major Indian Markets since 2005, including the Heard Indian Market in Phoenix and the SWAIA Indian Market in Santa Fe. I did contract design and implementation art for the new Meow Wolf installation in Denver and have participated in the Currents International New Media Festival in Santa Fe and Teknopolis at the Brooklyn Academy of Music. I have also provided art presentations for the SWAIA Haute Couture Fashion Show, the Center of Southwest Studies at Ft. Lewis College, the Kennedy Space Center annual space party, the Santa Fe Botanical Gardens, the New Mexico Museum of History and other public and private locations, as well as for international clients.
