"New Glass Now celebrates 40 years of New Glass Review, an annual exhibition-in-print featuring 100 of the most timely, innovative projects in glass. It is curated from an open call for submissions by the curator of modern and contemporary glass at The Corning Museum of Glass and a changing panel of guest curators."

Signs and Wonders, 2017

This online publication was released in conjunction with my first solo exhibition in Europe, at Galeria Fernando Santos in Porto, Portugal. The exhibition and publication were the result of an Artist in Gallery Award I received from the Arte Laguna Prize in 2016. It featured new and existing work in the form of neon sculpture, lenticular prints, and a video installation.


How Will We Work?, 2017

"Do You Realize?" (2015) is featured in this publication that was released in conjunction with the exhibition "How Will We Work?" for the Vienna Biennale in 2017. The exhibition investigated "future forms and functions of human work, particularly targeting the role of the creative sector. With a view to the disappearance of seemingly "traditional jobs," it will raise the question about who will, and should, actively participate in redefining the terms work and future."


EIGHT, 2017

"On A Clear Day You Can See Forever" (2016) is featured in this exhibition catalogue published by Art Room, which "represents the work of local, regional, and national artists, including Charis Ammon, Lauren Hana Chai, Alicia Eggert, Nathaniel Evans, Mariell Guzman, Jessica McClendon, and Melissa Mohammadi."


Dallas Women's Foundation STEM Trading Cards, 2017

I am honored to be included in this set of trading cards published by the Dallas Women’s Foundation to "feature and elevate the stories of women blazing trails in various STEM fields locally and nationally."


Elements and Principles of 4D Art & Design, 2016

"Eternity" (2010) is featured in this "core text for 4D foundational studies, offering students an accessible and hands-on introduction to the new elements and principles of time-based art. Suitable for both majors and non-majors, the book begins by reviewing basic aesthetic concepts and the principles and elements of 2- and 3D design to help students make connections between more familiar art forms and the new world of 4D design."

"You are (on) an island" (2011-13) is featured in this "300-page full color hardcover coffee table book, written by Patrick D’Arcy and Karen Eng and designed by In-House International. It is divided into five chapters that represent the driving forces behind these extraordinary individuals — Wonder, Kinship, Curiosity, Hope and Creativity.

Foundations of Digital Art and Design with the Adobe Creative Cloud, 2014

"It's Nice to Meet You!" (2008) is featured in this foundational design textbook that "reinvigorates software training by integrating design exercises into tutorials fusing design fundamentals and core Adobe Creative Cloud skills."


What Are You Working On? / Vad Har Du På Gång?, 2014

I wrote an essay titled "What is Work?" for this book that asks: "how do artists, critics, curators and researchers consider their relationship with eternity, infinity, continuity and the paradoxes existing in a world which primarily abides by these constraints, where many find themselves resembling slaves to unforgiving time demands? How does the realm of art relate and speak to text and literature? Both spheres explore the fictive, imaginary and boundless but use diverse methods and approaches—which frequently overlap and conflict. These uncharted spaces are approached utilizing various literary methods and genres: essay, fiction, experimental, short-shorts, exploded moments, fragmentary poetics, exploratory criticism, conversation, playful initiatives."


You are (on) an island, West Yorkshire, England, 2013

Neon Workshops (Wakefield, UK) invited Mike Fleming and I to bring "You are (on) an island" to the UK and present it as a mobile venture to an unsuspecting audience around Yorkshire. In January of 2013, we arrived arrived in England, installed the neon sign on the back of a flatbed truck, sparked up the delicate gas-filled glass with a small generator, and took to the road. We drove the sculpture around the UK for two weeks, and the project culminated in the publication of a limited-edition book.

This publication was made possible by Neon Workshops and the 152 people that backed our Kickstarter campaign. It features a foreword by Richard William Wheater, an essay by Danielle Rose King, and graphic design by Tyler Mintz.


Maine Women Pioneers III: Vanguard, Homage, Worldview, Dirigo, 2013

Maine Women Pioneers III is the catalogue from the University of New England Art Gallery’s four-part exhibition from October 2012 — July 2013. My work was included in "Vanguard" (Oct. 12 - Dec. 16, 2012), which "featured avant-garde, experimental and innovative works by nine Maine artists who offer insights into the future using mixed media, conceptual installation, performance and video elements."


ISEA2012 Albuquerque: Machine Wilderness, 2012

"The International Symposium on Electronic Art, ISEA2012 Albuquerque: Machine Wilderness is the eigteenth annual symposium for ISEA International, a non-profit organisation founded in the Netherlands that fosters interdisciplinary discourse at the intersection of art and technology. The 2012 Symposium is the first at a venue in the U.S., and also the first to deeply examine the complex relationships between technology and wilderness through the intersection of contemporary art, science, culture, and society.

Typoholic: Material Types in Design, 2012

"Eternity" (2010) is featured in this "thorough review of modern type-making that makes the core of communication itself. In two separate sections, the book introduces more than 40 new illustrative and animated type families that come in a narrative package of alphabets, numbers and punctuations, followed by 200 colourful pages of ad-hoc projects featuring custom type designs as logo marks, campaign installations and editorial art."


O’Clock, Time design, design time, 2012

"Eternity" (2010) is featured in this exhibition catalogue published by Triennale Design Museum and Officine Panerai. "By presenting a broad selection of site-specific works, installations, design objects and artworks, this catalogue tries to answer various questions, for example: how is it possible to convey the passing of time? Is it possible to live time as a direct experience? Although figurative art, the cinema and photography have reflected for a long time and in depth on the subject of time, design has often restricted itself to approaching this subject by encapsulating it in distinct categories, according to how it can be measured or its function. And yet the relationship between time and design is much more complex, and opens up prospects that are surprising, both from the aesthetic and functional point of view. Triennale Design Museum and Officine Panerai present an important exhibition and a book/catalogue about the rapport between time and design."
