Artist Statement Responding to issues of health, ecology and climate change, I work across social, cultural, and artistic practices. My unique art making practice focuses on learning and mastering new skills and forms of knowledge, developing effective replicable teaching systems, and inspiring the public to take action. Learn-Practice-Teach. My decade-long trilogy of experimental, collaborative, and educational projects includes Nature Matching System, Sustainable. Organic. Stewardship. and New Earth. Nature Matching System is a franchise modal art project in which local communities and school children create murals and activate educational programs promoting nutrition and healthy eating habits. My multi-faceted project Sustainable. Organic. Stewardship. is a horticulture and cultivation enterprise fostering stewardship of the environment. In New Earth, I practiced living skills and invoke the power of rituals, and ancient myths to restore health and equilibrium to the planet.
