I move beyond the classical approaches of teaching through multimedia, interactive processes, supporting a new generation of educators and students in conceptual development processes which combine art, science and technology. My techniques allow students – and myself – to experience performance and exhibition, learning, researching, teaching, mentor processes while responding to various services of the Department and University. We also experience a strong knowledge in studio practice, teaching experience, and discussion of the critical issues that face art foundations and advance programs.
