Teaching Artist
My objectives for teaching are founded in contemporary and conceptual art as well as creating living histories, investigating the life and the social, political environments of the artists. I teach about the historical relevance of their work and how they continue to be relevant in current events and my students’ personal experiences. My goal is to assist students in the realization that the arts are present, available and to be appreciated. It is important that students get a chance to step back form their artwork and the artwork of others to see how it is perceived and to experience using art to communicate ideas in a new way.
