Visual Arts, Columbia University, New York

This course examines ways of looking and ways of seeing, both personally & professionally as artists and in a larger cultural context. Through field trips to contemporary art and other cultural sites, conversations with visiting critical thinkers and practicioners, readings, discussions, and visual & written responses, we will examine how we look, think, act, create and respond--critically questioning our own artistic practices and ways of looking at the world.

Psychic Atlas

What is my work?


What is my work though?

A moment? A moment. Not a controversial statement. Not a demonstration. Not a criticism.


A moment. Captured before it wisps away. A moment of beauty. Youth. Sentiment. Would have inevitably faded as memories do.

A constant struggle. Time. Trying to claw back what was.
Mortality.


"That was then and this is now" How about that was then and this is then?
The Impossible Preservation.
