Masters Theses
This practice traces information as it moves through physical and digital spaces, asking questions surrounding how technology alters meaning as it makes interpretations.

Through a hybrid of sculpture, installation, and performance, I move within this tense in-between space, asking myself about that void, if it is possible for it to be filled, or if it is perhaps too big, or if it is perhaps too late.
