I've been among other things, an almost-archaeologist, a butcher shop apprentice, and a bad vegetarian; today I make lovingly perverse housewares and wearables in Oakland, California.
I make work for alter-egos, combining craftsmanship with humor, beauty and rage to bring my camp fantasies to life. My sweet spot is the electric disquiet between attraction and disgust, and I gleefully deploy "grotesqueries"--bones, insects, tongues-- against a squeamish, hypocritical modernity. |
