ALGORITHMS FOR INTIMACY

This body of work started in 2015 through a collaborative project with choreographer and dancer, Justin Tornow. You can find these works scattered throughout the Collaboration section. Before 2015, the seeds of it were present in The Value of Words project (2011) which sprung out of a residency at the Vermont Studio Center and a collaborative piece with Sydney Elizabeth Brown. Today, the idea has reduced and crystallized into two-dimensional works on paper that attempt to map what I see as supportive qualities of relationship, to others, to self, and to our environment.
