My memoir in essays, Skater Girl: An Archaeology of the Self was published by Guernica Editions in spring, 2024. Some are memoir pieces, some reflections. Some are sad; some funny; all are honest. The order is more or less chronological, but the book is a pastiche, an assemblage, with essays refracting and reflecting one another.

​

I’ve been making visual art in a wide range of media for 25 years. Several pieces play with the idea of the physical book.

 

I made an installation to accompany the launch of my book at Gallery 1313 in Toronto. Each essay was printed on a long strip of paper, coated in beeswax, and hung them from the ceiling. Visitors could walk in and out and read the book in random order – a forest of words.
