Dreams: mine and yours

Scientific Illustration

Alternate Side Painting

A while ago, before I had children, I dreamed about animals all the time. I started to draw key scenes from these dreams as a way to locate them outside of my body. During the pandemic, I reached out to my friends to see if they were having notable dreams. Anyone who sent me a description of their dream would get an illustration in the mail from me. This is an open ended project, and if you have a dream that you would like to see drawn, just email me the description and your mailing address. Your dream will arrive free of charge, in a few weeks.

I am an artist and designer based in New York City. I am trained as a painter, and have found my way to sculpture, collage, and time based media.

I am an artist and designer based in New York City. I am trained as a painter, and have found my way to sculpture, collage, and time based media. I am interested in the way our relationships can be expressed through contrasts of form, color, image and space. Time, both as it relates to stillness, to movement, and to the indexical qualities of images,  animates all of my  projects.

My work has been featured in gallery and museum shows in the US and Europe.  For inquiries about specific works, please contact De Chiara Projects, New York/Berlin.
