Tufted Series: Deforested Amazon (2021)Each tufted work is made with 100% wool that is water resistant, moth proof, and durable. Each rug is finished with PVC or latex glue and backing fabric.These tufted works are designed and inspired by Google Earth screen shots of the deforestation in the Amazon Rainforest, mostly which is illegally happening on Indigenous lands in Brazil. Each tufted rug is sold with a QR code that will take you to the Google Earth satelite view of the coordinates the tufted shape is referencing. Like an archive, the tufted pieces solidify a moment in time of environmental destruction. Weeks, months, and years later, one can scan the QR code to visit the Google Earth satelite view and observe the transformations taken place in that location due to the continual destruction on the environment. Some of the tufted works were made before I began the coodinates archive, therefore some QR codes will bring you to an animation I created using the original Google Earth screen grab.
This ongoing project is made with the financial support from the 2022 three month Project Stipend&#38;nbsp; from the Cultural Foundation of the Free State of Saxony (KdfS), The Kunstfonds Neustart Project Stipend, and the three month project stipends from the Kulturamt Leipzig in 2022.
With every sold rug in the Shapes of Destruction series, I will donate 10% to Amazon Watch Organization For 25 years, Amazon Watch has protected the rainforest and advanced the rights of Indigenous peoples in the Amazon Basin. Amazon Watch protects millions of acres of rainforest every year by partnering with Indigenous peoples – the best stewards of the forest – to directly challenge the corporate and government powers that threaten the Amazon and our climate.
The knowledge, cultures, and traditional practices of Amazon Watch’s Indigenous partners contribute greatly to sustainable and equitable stewardship of the Amazon and all of Mother Earth. Amazon Watch promotes these Indigenous-led solutions and expands capacity for Indigenous leaders, especially women, to maintain their autonomy and sovereignty for the stewardship of their ancestral territories.
Your purchase today will directly support critical efforts to protect the rainforest and stand in solidarity with Indigenous peoples. 100% of donations to Amazon Watch go to their programmatic work to stop Amazon destruction, advance Indigenous solutions and support climate justice. Thank you!

Tuftings and Mix Media 2022-2024
These newer works have been produced mainly as part of artistic research into botanical studies, herbarium work, and connections between depictions and symbolism of plants. These works are all inspired by time spent in the Hausknecht Herbarium. The compositions and depictions of plant studies are composed by drawing and tracing studies of old slide film found in the archives of the University of Jena. Exploring photography compositions and placements of non-human specimens within a frame, these tufted works and wooden works are layered exploration into botanical photography translated into textile and fragmented forms. The titles of the works coorelate to the titles of the cartridges and files the slide photographs were archived under. 
All of the wool used is fire proof, water proof, and moth proof, can be used as carpets or wall hangings, or sofa covers.&#38;nbsp;

June 2026.

C U at the Red Door is a community-focused exhibition and project that took place in June 2026 at the Red Door Arts &#38;amp; More Store in Hygiene, CO.&#38;nbsp;I would go to the Red Door Arts &#38;amp; More Store to buy local spa goods. They carry a goat milk lotion that I am obsessed with. One day in February I was driving through Hygiene and picked up some lotion and got to chatting with one of the owners, Elaine. She was telling me how the store is moving across the street to a one-storey ranch-style home, with three bedrooms and a lot more space than their current store would be available to artists to exhibit their work to sell. She was asking if I would happen to know artists. “Well, I am one!” I chuckled. Immediately my lightbulbs were going off with the idea to do a pop-up exhibit in the old, smaller store once they moved out. But Elaine had a different idea. She mentioned their new store will have a garage space that they currently don’t know what to do with. After a few minutes of discussion, I recognized the need this town had for more artists and workshops. We decided that the opening of this new store location will be a great time to engage the community and bring whatever skills and artworks I could offer to the community of Hygiene. The rest evolved into a very organic and organized exchange of art and art making processes that will change the way that garage is thought of forever.I quickly assembled a team of artists and creatives who I work with and know through CU Boulder’s MFA, Cinema, and Atlas PhD programs. Within a few months time I organized a team and we scheduled workshops that would be available on weekends throughout the entire month of June in 2026 and together we cleaned out the garage and set up this group exhibition.Exhibiting Artists:
Carrie Bergund
Ayuj Consul
Tenaya DeWitt
Sara Gallagher
Ben Grossi
Srikar Hari
Eileen Hinckle
Jules Jackson
Andi Newberry
Luis E. Perez
Molly Pluenneke
Allison Radomski
Lena Ishel Rodriquez
Etta Sandry
Polly Torian
Andrea Garcia Vasquez
Ezra WolkonThere was no overarching theme of the exhibition except for the fact that it was in a garage. I used the architecture and contents of the garage to help design and curate the structure of the show: using filing cabinets, peg board, and shelving that was already there. Thinking of scale and how viewers may move around the space, we worked together to situate all of the artworks in the non-traditional gallery space.&#38;nbsp;With each artist bringing their own skillset and practice into this space outside of CU Boulder campus and into the outskirts of rural Boulder County, we were able to offer an array of workshops on the weekends such as:
&#38;nbsp; &#38;nbsp;&#38;nbsp; &#38;nbsp; 
 Cyanotype
&#38;nbsp; &#38;nbsp; Button Making
&#38;nbsp; &#38;nbsp; Magic Lantern Slides
&#38;nbsp; &#38;nbsp; Community Quilting
&#38;nbsp; &#38;nbsp; Sip &#38;amp; Paint
&#38;nbsp; &#38;nbsp; Poetry Readings
&#38;nbsp; &#38;nbsp; Pottery
&#38;nbsp; &#38;nbsp; and moreWhat evolved was a growing community and bridges being built between the unincorporated town and the young artists emerging from Boulder.Thank you so much to Chet &#38;amp; Elaine from the Red Door Arts &#38;amp; More Store for trusting me with a vision centered around community and artistic practice!
Thanks to all who came to visit and partake in the workshops from all the spanning communities!

Nuestras Historias is an exhibit and research project dedicated to reimagining whose stories, ideas, and artwork show up in professional museum exhibits. 
For the past two years, youth from across Denver worked with professional artists, community members, researchers, educators, and museum experts to develop this art exhibit. This book documents their experiences, artist statements, and ideas about how to make the world a better, more creative and joyful place. The exhibition features youth from Museo's Lxs Jóvenes Leadership Lab and professional creatives in a powerful artistic conversation. Our research asks how youth can be invited to collaborate with elders to tell stories of their experiences and identities in public spaces. 
Throughout the project, artists and educators invited the teens to explore: Who is a museum for? Whose stories does it tell? What stories would you share? Youth answered through artwork, displayed here alongside that of the professional artists as equally valid expressios of identity, justice, tradition, and play.
	My roles within this project started in 2024 as a facilitator for workshops on collage and using creative processes to (re)tell stories around identity and culture. 
Working with the project director, Kristina Stamatis, was an amazing experience and we quickly recognized our shared values around intergenerational education and creative practice. I continued working alongside&#38;nbsp;

her and my role evolved into a more coordination and curation position, assisting with the visual aspects of the topics and ideas the young people were generating during our Spring, Summer and Fall sessions over the span of two years. As curator and coordinator, I pieced together the sketches and works the youth created and continued to plan new prompts and workshops that would contribute to the overall themes incited by the youth: identity, justice, tradition, and play. The works range from: collages, embroideries, drawings, ceramics, graffiti stencils, zines, and paper flowers. In the Fall of 2025, Kristina and myself designed the Lxs Jovenes Youth Leadership Program to be about curation and giving the youth agency on decision making and editing for the exhibition. In this time, I was also preparing a lot of the artworks to be exhibition ready. Youth helped with curatorial design decisions, color themes, text and had a voice on which artworks should be included or not. &#38;nbsp;The final result of the work from the youth in collaboratino with myself along with othe professional artists and adults in the area is the exhibition Nuestras Historias, on view from January 29 - May 17, 2026.

		<description>Letras de Esperanza (Letters of Hope)
00:10:16 loop video with audio
2025-2026


Script: letters on hope and belonging written by the Story Telling For Tomorrow Project
Audio Engineer: Carl DixonMusic: Kristina Stamatis
Visual Production: Andrea Garcia Vasquez




“Letras de Esperanza” is a video animation that layers generations of stories around migration, belonging, home, and hope. The impulse to make this video work came about during Nuestras Historias, a project I was working on at the Museo de las Americas, Denver with Kristina Stamatis between 2024-2026. Kristina invited the work from The Story Telling For Tomorrow Project directed by Antero Garcia, Professor at the Stanford Graduate School of Education, into the Nuestras Historias context because it resonated with the themes of culture, identity, and the current political state of the country. We wanted to invite inter-generational voices to the narrative that our exhibition was telling. The Stoy Telling For Tomorrow Project wrote a series of letters to home. The prompt was broad enough that it allowed for people to either describe home, describe why they left home, explain to their children and loved ones what home means, and it gave the members of that community a moment to reflect on where they were in 2025.&#38;nbsp;My role in this video project was to create the visual element. I did not know what to expect from these letters, so when all 10-15 of them finally arrived in my inbox, I listened repeatedly. The letters are all anonymous and I don’t have any information on who these people are or where they are from, but I could hear their voice (or perhaps someone else’s voice) reading the letter to home. I heard children, I heard grandmothers, I heard pain, happiness, love, and longing. I thought about my own family and their migration to the United States. I thought about my own migration to Germany. To migrate to another country is a process of grieving that only migrants can understand. You loose a part of the place you call home, and with that, you loose a part of yourself. You keep those memories close to you, and a cycle of remembering and longing repeats itself over the years taking different shapes and weights as time keeps moving forward. 
The cycle of grief, the intergenerational experiences of moving, leaving behind, and belonging, the power of love and family are all elements I wanted to capture in this video. Using Blender, a 3D modeling and animation software, I built a generalized suburban landscape with lawns, parks, trees, and a highway that loops in a never ending route above and through the neighborhood. Old home video footage from my own family throughout the early 90’s is also being used in this video.&#38;nbsp;
Viewers watch the POV of navigating this suburban landscape against voices describing the ocean they used to live by, the desert they now call home, the ceremonies they used to partake in, parents explaining their identity to their children, and children thanking their parents for a better life.

	From The Field Notes &#38;amp; Archives8 minutes 30 secondsSingle channel film w sound2025
the video is currently not available online“From The Field Notes &#38;amp; Archives” came to me at a time of social and political unrest, when communities and families are being ripped apart due to a fear of diversity and a shameful exoticism. In this video I am making visual and linguistic connections between the anguish and anxiety around belonging, identity, and social hierarchies happening on a socio-political level as well as within the environmental spectrum of today.
The script evokes the sensation of getting picked and taken, from the perspective of the flower, or plant. It questions the need for it’s selection “is it because I am exotic?” 
The footage in this experimental film come from an iphone, bender 3D animations, usb micriscope footage in the COLO Herbarium of cheatgrass, and slide film from the Hausknecht Herbarium. I took the information on the specimen label of the cheatgrass in the COLO herbarium and used it as a prompt for AI to generate a 3D model of the place where the specimen was collected.&#38;nbsp;

The narrative poem written throughout the film puts the viewer in the perspective of a flower being picked to be studied, and also alludes to questions I have about what will happen to our imagery of and access to nature once it is totally destroyed.&#38;nbsp;
Thanks to Herbariums:Hausknecht Herbarium Jena, DECOLO Herbarium, Boulder, USAThe images here are low quality screenshots of the film.
If you want to access the film, email me.

		<description>Herbarium Studies: Flora In The Archives is a body of work that started in 2021 during my time at the Kuenstlerische Tatsachen Art &#38;amp; Science Residency in Jena, Germany. There, I spent two days in the archives of the Hausknecht Herbarium and generated a series of drawings and tracings from color slide film photographs. The photographs were from botanical research and science groups that traveled around the world between 1960-1990 to look at different flora. Since that residency, I have moved to Boulder, Colorado and have visited other herbaria, such as the one on the CU Boulder Campus. Continuing my interest in the depiction of plants and the cultural role of plants in time of environmental crisis, I created new artworks using acrylic, wool, 3D animation, and video. &#38;nbsp;

In the summer of 2025, I was invited to exhibit the works in the group show “Matter Over Mind” at the Dairy Arts Center in Boulder, CO.

Over the last few years I have actively listening to music intentionally. I would put on some headphones, lay or sit somewhere comfortable, close my eyes and dive into different playlists and radios to collect sounds and songs I thought were really moving for one reason or another. These collections turned into random playlists. In times of polarization and isolation, I find music to be something universal all humans can relate to and connect with. Simultaneously, since around 2019 I have been collecting random creaigslist Missed Connections ads. I was living in Germany at the time and I think it was a way to cope with homesickness and looking for belonging in a foreign country. Since moving back to the USA, I have continued this collecting practice. I have had this idea for a radio show for about two years now, but I am honestly not conventionally able to schedule or work in a radio station, I don’t have the skills, I don’t have the regular routine, nor do I have the energy to do so, quite honestly. Still, this urge to combine the missed connections with my playlists has pulled at my studio practice to the point that I began recording it myself as an experiment. Below you can see an expisode as an example and you are welcome to click on the Mix Cloud link to hear more episodes.I think there is something pulsing at the underbelly of contemporary society when I look through these ads: the hopelessness of the ad most people convey in their posts, the longing for connection which inspired one to post on craigslist, the dying use of these sorts of ads, and the ever growing diagnosis of depression and “lonliness epidemics”. These vignetes of sound and text are just a mere reflection on these times and a creative way to explore those emotions and navigate these attempts to connect. &#38;nbsp;

I use a very cheap recorder or my laptop microphone, the DIY quality is simply true to the equipment I (don’t) have and the fact that I am mostly recording these while I am wide awake due to insomnia. All songs on each playlist are listed in the description when you visit my MixCloud page.

Mix Cloud allows for 10 episodes to be uploaded at a time, so they will be structured like seasons.These will be uploaded and changed on a monthly basis, so stay tuned.
Season 1 is currently up.
Thanks for listening.</description>
