As a visual artist based in Philadelphia, my work, widely exhibited in Europe and the US, explores the 'psychogeographic' concept of 'the spirit of the place.' Each project is preceded by in-depth research and extensive walks through the areas; some might describe me as a walking artist.
My work focuses on the impact of the urban or rural environment on the psyche. I explore areas of positive energy, like the ocean's edge, and places of negative energy, like hotel rooms.
