My work begins where assemblages of society and technology self-disintegrate below their surfaces and syntaxes. Their paradoxa and contradictions cannot be resolved. I trace and materialize their forms and patterns—through research, collection, documentation—to make their fragile routines of legitimization explicit and malleable. From there I create conceptual-narrative entities: sincere propositions doubling as strategic fictions. These produce public formats—installations, curricula, publications, performances, organizations. Ambivalence is experience, method and material for playful incisive encounters with artifacts of the ultra-contemporary.
