Pomfretite

Soundtrack?

I am a junior at Bennington College in Bennington, Vermont. I study visual arts and the social sciences. My work is usually installation based, although it also drifts between architecture and photography. I intern in New York, New York (1)(2) during a yearly “Field Work Term” and attempt to spend the summer in my hometown, Pomfret, Connecticut.

I spend my time gardening (doubtlessly a net loss in calories, but still enjoyed), saving the environment, going to art galleries and museums, making art, browsing bookstores (Symposium Books is one of my favorites), reading, antiquing, drinking chai lattes at Victoria Station, running, biking, hiking, attending parties and formal dinners, buying local, eating well, laughing and enjoying life.

I’m interested in typefaces, the aesthetics of dictionaries, artist books and zines, local history, wine, people, politics, urban planning, fads and popular culture, anything alive, anything old, sugaring, collections, etc.

No doubt I could never have an all-inclusive list of my favorite anything but some favorite artists that come to mind are Judy Chicago, Felix Gonzalez-Torres, Christos and Jeanne-Claude, Wolfgang Tillmans, Robert Smithson, Dan Flavin, Cai Guo-Qiang, Helen Frankenthaler, Wassily Kandinsky, Auguste Rodin, Le Corbusier, Antoni Gaudi, Philip Johnson, Charles and Ray Eames, Sol LeWitt, Richard Serra, Andy Warhol, Matthew Brannon, Roe Ethridge, Rita McBride, Robin Rhode and Phoebe Washburn.
