Mother of God, UC Irvine 2021
Build Your Own Table
My father is a woodworker. So is his father. His father’s father whittled tiny owls out of the pine trees in his Maine backyard. Building is in my blood, but I’ve never been a great craftsman, so instead, I whittle with my words.
Below is a little more about my recent work. I love building tables that elevate other artists, particularly other LGBTQIA+ and/or BIPOC artists. Sometimes I’m devising, sometimes producing, sometimes acting, but always building. If you want to grab a seat at the table, get in touch.
Kiss Your Darlings (2023, ongoing)
KISS YOUR DARLINGS is the cuttings from your living room floor. It’s the poems that didn’t make the book, the scene that got cut, the song left off the album. It’s an always changing, always flowing showcase of the pieces you love most, that no one else has ever seen. Your darlings. Bring them. We promise to give them lots of little kisses.
