About this Event
Featuring animations by Ricky Christian set to live musical scores for each work, Soma is a graphic novel told in forty-five woodcuts carved during the winter of 2022. A mundane horror processing the physical body and navigating domestic spaces. The narrative investigates lived and imagined experience, corporality, and the passage of time.
Umbra is a graphic novel composed of seventy woodcut prints that follows a dog walk through South Philadelphia in 2020. Wander the spaces where the familiar begins to empty out and everyday environments shift toward estrangement, absence, or memorial. The series traces a cityscape of unfinished construction, looming surveillance, and abandoned artifacts emerging from shadow, casting the mundane into unease.
