The Stranger/ The Hydradic I
Created as a work of inquiry in relation to the content presented in a chapter in my doctoral dissertation, see pages 31-50, which was successfully defended on May 29, 2009 at the University of British Columbia. This piece was sold at the Vending Machine Show at BYU in October 2009. Proceeds were donated to the United Way. This piece also provoked a workshop at Southern Illinois University at Carbondale through the Visiting Artist Program on April 19-20, 2010.

What Saved Me
Two-person Show with Cassandra Barney at Kayo Gallery, Salt Lake City, UT, June 2011.
