INSTANT ACCESS to A Supportive On-line Community. THE BABY FACTORY : is a collective effort of Artists and Arts Supporters committed to creating positive, sustainable social Transformation. Through bringing focus to the role that Art, Artists and Art Making play in healing our wounds : personally, collectively and across lines of difference : we hold space for positioning ourselves as cultural torch bearers and visionaries, even as the world around us insists upon appearing bleak.

EARLY ACCESS to my most recent work.  Get it while it’s HOT. Get it delivered  direct to your inbox. ROUGH CUT : A Day in the Life of a Working Artist. Through the lens of self-portraiture, this feature length film takes a look at SEX, DEATH and THE ECONOMY – in 60 second to 20 minute snippets – while the Artist is working. Doing other things. Like trying to get a sandwich. It’s a vlog. It’s a movie. Cut up into pieces. It’s a treatise. It’s a tear-jerking indie tragic-comedy. I hope you like it. And I look forward to hearing what you think. 

UNBRIDLED ACCESS to my video and media library : IN THE WORKS. I am in the process of building an online archive including : past work, current projects and dreams yet to emerge. I’d love for you to come along and witness the journey.

DIRECT DELIVERY of my blog posts to your inbox, as they emerge. This Artist has words. And She will travel. That’s called destiny. There’s an ongoing conversation I’ve been having with the culture :  through a fiercely imperfect Spiritual lens. It’s a never-ending story. Keep up. Engage with me. Or just sit back and observe. I respect both ways of being equally.

BE INCLUDED on my mailing list. Stay informed and up-to-date on all upcoming projects, events and performances. Be in the know. Right here. Right now.

ACCEPT THE OPPORTUNITY to help build an archive-in-progress, showcasing a visual history of this Artist’s work and a library of her written texts. Observe and participate in the process of an Artist looking at herself.
