I am a conceptual artist using my body as a medium for communication and confrontation. I like to explore task and ritual in an open-ended way, creating genuine experiments for myself/my audience to discover myself/themselves within. My work often centers around the Strangeness of authentically expressed emotions, suffering and ecstatic bodies, childhood, old age, sex and death. The best fun for me is playing on our unnatural discomforts with these natural and unavoidable elements of life. I have been performing under the name Suidae for four years while working and hosting events at my home studio in Missoula, Montana. Suidae work can be expected to combine some elements of butoh, spiritual ritual, clown, mask and kink performance.
