"Pity Party"
was an in-studio installation that progressed
over the course of approximately four months. Starting with a private birthday
party for the artist and her cat, the installation evolved as the cake was left
to rot in a constantly changing environment where collection and hoarding
melded into an artwork of tactile multi-faceted installations. Syracuse, New York 2009
"Pity Party: The Window Trap" performance over 28 days at XLProjects Space, 2009.
"Groundhog Day" was created as a communal meeting space
for the graduate students at Syracuse University. As the piece remained active
for a month it slowly deteriorated into chaos, invoking the participants to
question time, entropy, and feelings of dislocation within the familiar. February, 2010.
