Hi, I’m Aimee, an interdisciplinary artist working across storytelling forms such as comics, painting, puppetry, creative writing, and time-based media. My arts-based research explores relationships between humans, objects, and environments—and the cultural narratives that reflect those connections.

Materials and Tools: I love collecting the odd and the old—especially when they’re headed for the landfill—and using them in my studio. At the same time, I love experimenting with emerging technologies and I’m currently working with generative AI for artmaking and storytelling. As an artist and educator, I hope to model a natural curiosity about the many ways we can access knowledge and engage with art.

When I’m not making or teaching art: I’m probably digging through dumpsters, rearranging furniture, or destroying the kitchen. Since I miss living near the water, I’m also learning to sustain a 70 gallon saltwater aquarium that hosts a community of coral, anemones, and marine fish. It’s almost as fun as learning to sail a boat, and my old crewmates aren’t worried about being launched into Lake Michigan.
