investigations into
contemporary feminism




This project is a long-term, wide-ranging, and interdisciplinary collaborative project with artist and writer Jen Kennedy.  Our website, www.contemporaryfeminism.com, details at length our various works, from performances, installations, publications, and public interventions.  The website is one further way we publicly explore what "feminism" signifies today, an inquiry that forms the basis of all instantiations of the project.

For information on upcoming projects, PDFs of our publications, installation photos of past works, our interactive online forum, press, and more, please see our website or email us directly at contact@contemporaryfeminism.com.




the Cartoons series


This is an ongoing body of work in which I re-caption images from The New York Times using a sentence or phrase taken directly from the article to which the image corresponds.  I do not alter either the image or the text – my intervention highlights an already existing relationship.

I have included a small selection of Cartoons below.  Contact me to see the complete series.

Off the Record...


Off the Record...
is a collaborative project with Ethan Breckenridge and Phil Vanderhyden.  It takes as inspiration the self-organized activities of artists in the early 90s, who turned their Soho lofts into impromptu galleries, theaters, and presentation spaces. Using this moment in the market as our catalyst Off the Record... is part installation, part performance, and part live video happening, reframing the traditional form of the artist interview using a talk-show paradigm.
