Born in central California and rooted for many years in Seattle, he immersed himself in the arts community as an exhibiting artist, gallery member, and graphic designer and web developer for many arts organizations—work that led to his current position at Civilization, a design studio serving designers, architects, cultural institutions, and grassroots organizers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith embroidered postcards and other woven paper ephemera, his ongoing studio practice combines destruction and refortification, as cuts and punctures are renewed in threaded connection, and many like parts merge to reveal new forms. The repetitive coordination of these ubiquitous substrates forms complex and undivided wholes, enacting something larger than the materials. This practice has expanded to include modular installations and collaborative projects, series that always echo his core interest in how diverse elements ultimately form something undivided.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn 2020 he moved to the east coast, renewing his practice in Baltimore and Philadelphia soon after, where he now resides. His work has been exhibited internationally, widely published, and collected extensively, and is represented by J. Rinehart Gallery in Seattle. This Paradigm Gallery exhibition is his first in Philly.
