About me
I was born in London, England, but have spent huge chunks of my life in Johannesburg, New York City, and now Vancouver, Canada, which is where I am currently based. My work cycles across mediums such as drawing, writing, collage, sculpture, photo and video. And is rooted in performance, a practice which has continued at times outside of an artistic context in the form of therapeutic and spiritual inquiry. More recently I have been investigating the historical underpinnings of contemporary New Age religion—especially in its relationship to the feminine struggle for spiritual authority.
Over the years I have shown my work at Afternoon Projects, the Western Front, Artspeak, Participant Inc, BALTIC Centre for Contemporary Art, Yerba Buena Center for the Arts, Mix NYC, The Jeonju International Film Festival, Exit Art, and the Knitting Factory among others. I have received support from Franklin Furnace, Canada Council for the Arts, and the BC Arts Council. In 2000, I was visiting artist and guest lecturer of performance art at the University of Texas at Austin.
