of Governors Island, New York, from living quarters to the contemporary intent of a place of refuge— Modus Operandi is a project exploring an expansion of the functions of space and the body. In conjunction with the ongoing construction of a naval structure, this project invites participants to aid in the construction of a stage in the form of a ferry but using soft foam materials. Participants are encouraged to play and let their imaginations run rampant. As they build the stage for the performers, Fellow Josue Bessiake, Leonie Smith &amp; Roger Manning played tunes and sounds related to the water, inviting guests to dance, play, and let their bodies react accordingly, playing the role of audience member and performer. This project is supported by collaborators Jo Locke, Leonie Smith, Roger Manning, and Musicians of New York Subways. <img width="4752" height="3168" width_o="4752" height_o="3168" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/1cf857fe342e2a22f52a33e916d07326c9531f1597fe95eef603e7f7632b553b/Moms-garage.jpg" data-mid="221389765" border="0" alt="Anatomy of a Home Ma's Garage " data-caption="Anatomy of a Home Ma's Garage " src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/1cf857fe342e2a22f52a33e916d07326c9531f1597fe95eef603e7f7632b553b/Moms-garage.jpg" /> <img width="877" height="772" width_o="877" height_o="772" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/0c8f946c3038eb0566ecb9a4f5e16c6d353f56416a4300533f9fa6f0a6510445/the-legs-two.jpg" data-mid="221389766" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/877/i/0c8f946c3038eb0566ecb9a4f5e16c6d353f56416a4300533f9fa6f0a6510445/the-legs-two.jpg" /> <img width="4752" height="3168" width_o="4752" height_o="3168" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/cc1feeaba91320523fcdf362aad3fc03840047d1c077221b0dfbfba02df5a776/Mamas-Garage-Band.jpg" data-mid="221389764" border="0" alt="Mama's Garage Band, Performance in a wooden construction" data-caption="Mama's Garage Band, Performance in a wooden construction" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/cc1feeaba91320523fcdf362aad3fc03840047d1c077221b0dfbfba02df5a776/Mamas-Garage-Band.jpg" /> <img width="1402" height="1125" width_o="1402" height_o="1125" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/b6a5f470c9a2eb81c750a1448e983b7b20d1d26864c8ebbb76856b7baf24b615/the-legs.jpg" data-mid="221389767" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/b6a5f470c9a2eb81c750a1448e983b7b20d1d26864c8ebbb76856b7baf24b615/the-legs.jpg" /> Ma’s Garage is a continuation of the exploration of the home from an ongoing project, Anatomy of a Home. While in Brownsville, Texas, I constructed a space modeled to the square foot after my mother's garage using locally sourced materials from found objects to lumber. In return, locals taught me to play their favorite songs and tunes; using that space, we recreated and reimagined garage-specific memories, asking and answering “what you would have done if you had access to a garage”, expanding the domestic imagination.

Installed at Chautauqua Institute in Collaboration with Jo Locke. Outdoor installation using found object. approx. 329 sq. ft, 2024 “The Structure” is a collaborative project involving carving out a place for community engagement in unconventional spaces. It is a project brought on by my desire to expand my work beyond just an object but also the space an object inhabits. It is a place of performance, a gallery space, a place to work, a place to rest but it is not a house.

The found chair is the seat I was in upon hearing the news. The seat was the chair I sat in when I would draw, paint or just rest in an everyday studio chair. It soon became a symbol of loss for me I refused to sit in this chair or even interact with it. During this conversation, Jessica relayed to me the passing of her grandmother Zeni who passed away around the same time. The project works as a symbol of loss and the act of taking on another's grief through labor. As part of this collaboration, Jessica would make a tally on my studio chair for each day since Steven passed. Upon installing the chair there were 430 tallies. As part of the collaboration, the tallies will continue until the chair is filled or the artist passes. The accompanying works on paper consist of 120 drawings of the same chair. My portion of the collaboration was to depict an object every day for 120 days for each hour that Jessica's grandmother was in a coma before her passing. This collaboration serves as a response to grief and the transformation of an object; the chair an object associated with rest defined as a seat typically for one, becomes a symbol of loss. <img
