#chronically ill artist

Thought it would take me months to knit this, but I underestimated the power of hyperfixation when you’re virtually housebound and work like 2 hours a day, so I made it in 15 days instead. Once it’s done blocking, I’ll have a sweater I made!! In the middle of a never ending heat wave! Yay!

A recent illustration I made to submit to a show about disability

I wanted to depict pain and work. It wasn't selected, but I still wanted to share for any who relate 💕

Dear Eagle, Love Prometheus is a digital zine and an exploration of chronic illness and pain comprised of cyanotype prints, self portraits, X-rays and MRI results, diagrams, linocut prints, stamps, stock photos, anxious 2am thoughts, and so on.

The idea for Dear Eagle came about all the way back in 2022, maybe even earlier, but you know how it goes. Love as always to my best friend and main partner in creative crime, @clawedghouls for teaching me how to cyanotype in the first place, and for being an open ear and mind for all of my hypotheticals.

You can purchase Dear Eagle, Love Prometheus on ko fi or itch for 1USD+.

Safe Foods

2024

Aluminum foil, stone clay, Hershey’s kisses wrappers and plumes, found objects, cardstock, spray paint, acrylic paint, glass microbead paint

inspired by David Seltzer, Sea Salt/Lemon Sage

With celiac disease, every meal is a risk. Gluten hides everywhere, from restaurant griddles to soy sauce and licorice. Since my diagnosis, I’ve identified “safe foods” I can always trust not to set off an intestine-destroying immune response: whole fruit, plain potato chips, most hot dogs, Hershey’s chocolate. When I’m stranded and hungry, I look for them. Drawing on the bright colors and abstract inedibility of David Seltzer’s Sea Salt/Lemon Sage, I made my safe foods easier to find by rendering them in an ANSI-inspired worksite safety palette. Use the headlamp for the full high-visibility experience.

Exciting news: This sculpture is on display at the ArtsWorcester gallery show Feast: Call and Response with the Fitchburg Art Museum through April 21, 2024.

Even more exciting news: the Fitchburg Art Museum selected it, along with nine other pieces from the show, to exhibit this summer!

Finally finished this Dragon Tale Cowl by HuntHandKnits! It’s my first real knit project and first time with actual color work besides really minimum color changes in amigurumi and stuff. Definitely had some mistakes but the dragon turned out and that’s all I care about! I’m in love 😍
