Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Christina Kruse
Q: How do the materials relate to the concepts you're exploring?
She describes a process where material choices (wood, plaster, stone, fabric) are selected to reflect traditional values while also suggesting openness, ambiguity, and the possibility of redefining what constitutes authorship and possession in art.
Christina Kruse
Q: Can you tell me about this work?
Kruse explains that the collage-started as a way to map values and morals, translating notes, quotes, and material into a dialogue about how we understand our own position in the world and how those values translate into physical forms like wall pieces and sculptures.
Nicola Tyson
Q: So I love the title and the way you approach titling the works—there seem to be narratives there, right?
There are hints at narratives, but I don't unpack fixed stories; the image grows itself and can include decoys or clues in the titles.
Stella De Mont
Q: Can you tell us about the show at Benrubi Gallery and the significance of the title This Life Wants You?
The title reflects a core message the artist wants viewers to hear and internalize; the works are about reminding people of belonging and presence, inviting projection into the images rather than showcasing a conventional beauty. It's about life's instinctual pull and resonance in the moment.
Catherine Birk
Q: How does the artist approach color and material choices across the works?
Color is dialed back in the newer works to create a calmer, taupe-to-lavender palette, while beeswax and herbs are used consistently to evoke warmth and a sense of home, with structural nets and doll-house references guiding the installation logic.
