The white stag in folklore is an elusive creature who evades capture and symbolizes man’s spiritual quest, while tales of the white doe involve the transformation of a woman into a deer and back again, set free by a man’s romantic conquest. These ideas produced a deep craving for metamorphosis and meditation. I built a life-size deer and arranged to be sealed inside her. The sculpture was displayed for a group show titled Opaque, and I lay silently within the deer for the first 3 hours of the opening reception. When the artist talk began, I pushed, punched, and clawed my way out.

100 Performances from the Hole 2014
This was a live self portrait where I deconstructed all the ways I had curated my look. The question being, what is the truer identity? That which we choose and curate upon ourselves, or that which is bare and unaltered?

Art making can be so solitary and isolated that sometimes you need to be reminded of the presence and support of your community. A note was passed around the audience informing them the artist would be falling from the stage in a matter of minutes. Then, blindfolded, the artist fell backward off the stage and was caught by the audience.

Public Performance, Siena 2013
This piece was conceived in response to the violent murder of a woman in the city of Siena. When it was discovered that the woman was a sex worker, the whole city seemed to excuse the murder. It seems that a woman's clothing, profession or behavior is burdened with the blame of soliciting the violence upon her, rather than addressing the root of the violence itself.
In "Unraveled" I crocheted a dress in red yarn, hooked one end to a pillar, and walked until the dress was completely gone.
