i’m a writer and artist in portland, oregon.
my work wraps its arms around storytelling, ethnoecology, folk practices, grief, and the void.
i am often inspired by walks, birdwatching, calligraphy, and the wetlands near my apartment.
my work is informed by my quaker lineage & zen studies.
i like to make work collaboratively, outdoors, and in good company.
my practice has taken shape through field recordings, tinctures, newsletters, an installation on a farm and in a trailer,
paintings, weavings, super 8 films, and stories. i play dulcimer under the name annie hymnal.
i am the co-founder of the people’s wetland project with hannah june althea, and one-half of the auditory landscape research lab with jeremy seith.
i am a current graduate candidate in eastern oregon university’s “landscape, ecology, community” environmental writing mfa program.
i studied textiles at the oregon college of art and craft and herbalism at the elderberry school.
i write about art for money and write other things for no money.
i write a recurring email letter that people seem to like.
