From hitchhiking and working on organic farms in Aotearoa to an artist residency in Ghana to performing seasonal labor at an Alaskan fishing lodge to her graduate degrees and faith in Jesus’ love practice, she seeks out experiences to broaden her perception and skills in order to let the artwork have its own life with and without her intentions since art is always subjective and relational.
Erin’s work has been shared internationally in diverse ways. Sound broadcasts include Materials & Applications architecture radio (Los Angeles), Soundart Radio (U.K.), and Lookout FM online. Moving images screened in various formats from gallery installations to film festivals that include GRRL HAUS Cinema, Stone + Water (Seoul, Korea), Open Access TV (Portland, Oregon), and as part of The One Minutes Series touring festivals and art spaces around Europe.
