  www.thedirtfloorstudio.com My studio holds three practices: Fine Arts in the tradition of New Genres (including the Fine Arts Bivouac- a new curatorial project), Education (higher ed. and experiential education for youth) and Design-Build with an emphasis on furniture and limited edition functional objects. The objects I make tend to occupy a ground between ritual and play. Do they come from some other place, not just art? Are they cultural objects more than art objects? Do they carry the residue of existing as functional objects? Photographic images sooth the desire for strange objects, gathering their own importance as discrete voices and bodies of work. The furniture I have been designing and building are one of a kind pieces made predominantly with wood that is reclaimed or rescued with an emphasis on integrating practical value with understated design values that don’t hold to passing trends. The Fine Arts Bivouac attempts to integrate astute contemporary art within specific contexts (on-site) that usually don't owe much to our current institutionalized art contexts for contemporary art. Attention is given to finding un-suspecting attention and a critical consideration of place and the work’s potential in that location. The discoveries and experimentation in my studio practice as an artist are intertwined with my role as an educator. The same vigor and willingness to engage critical contemporary contexts and applications is found in my curriculum and way of approaching individuals as learners and innovators from varied socio-economic backgrounds.
