展出的是联想YOGA 3 PRO (1370 80HE)笔记本电脑的一对替换铰链。之所以选择它们,是因为我与这台机器有个人联系。这些组件被布置并使用中幅黑白胶片和微距镜头拍摄,然后进行扫描,这一过程使通常可复制和机械化的过程变得繁琐和抽象。

Shown are a pair of replacement hinges for the Lenovo YOGA 3 PRO (1370 80HE) laptop. They were chosen because of a personal relationship to the machine. The components were arranged and shot on medium format black and white film with a macro lens and then scanned, a process which belabors and abstracts a normally reproducible and mechanical process.

我是一位来自美国特拉华州纽瓦克的艺术家。我于2016年在马里兰艺术学院获得跨学科雕塑学士学位,并于2019年在华盛顿大学获得照片/媒体艺术硕士学位。在2022年至2023年间,我与尼古拉斯·斯特罗贝尔特(Nicholas Strobelt)在华盛顿州西雅图共同经营一个名为Paid的展览空间。我目前居住在德国柏林。斯特罗贝尔特和我继续从我们分别位于柏林和美国加利福尼亚州奥克兰的位置运营一个名为Device的艺术印刷出版社。我的实践涉及审视我与生产的关系,并评估我所努力可能存在的系统。我关注在部分信息、资源不一致性条件下的决策制定,以及在艺术家角色中所有权的有效发展。在我的工作中,我寻求与活动的等级评价发生冲突,并希望建立敏感性。这通过与写作、出版、信息技术、通信和商业的物质参与体现在我的作品中。

I am an artist from Newark, Delaware, US. I received a BFA in Interdisciplinary Sculpture from the Maryland Institute College of Art in 2016 and an MFA in Photo/Media from the University of Washington in 2019. Between 2022 and 2023 I operated an exhibition space called Paid with Nicholas Strobelt in Seattle, Washington. I currently live in Berlin, DE. Strobelt and myself continue to operate an artist print publication press called Device from our respective locations between Berlin and Oakland, California, US. My practice involves examining my relationship to production and evaluating the systems in which my efforts may exist. I’m concerned with decision making under conditions of partial information, inconsistency of affordance, and the effectual development of property within the role of artist. In my work I seek conflict with hierarchical valuations of activity and hope to cultivate sensitivity. This is embodied in my work through material engagement with writing, publishing, information technology, communications, and commerce.
