Gifted Artist Book-Memoir Preorders

Donation protected
I've been meditating on how to survive as an artist - I have worked without a regular day job since this fundraiser started in 2018. It has been my dream to publish my first book and share my stories of what happened after I graduated from art school at the age of 31 suffering from undiagnosed post-traumatic stress disorder. This advice will be seasoned with images of exhibited and unexhibited art projects of the past 12 years across performance, film, photography, installation, and institutional critique.

I will self-publish my first book via preorders. This book is about my travels, what I think needs to change in the art world, and a memoir of things that have happened to me (including sexual harassment, unexpected successes and failures, becoming a leader, challenging institutions, loving myself).

The first 100 orders here will receive an individual phone call/performance. For $100, I will send you a photograph and a book. For $50, I will send you this artist book because you helped me realize my dream this year. I will share content with you that no one on social media can see. Any other amount is a love offering.

Your donation will also help me to do this work for free for people who can’t afford it. Your donation will help me to create the art world we all wish to see – one where the dignity of all creative humans is valued and respected.

Love you.
