Having the same name as another artist is never easy. In a field in which establishing an idiosyncratic vision is crucial, the prospect of having your artwork, personal statements, CV, or bio mistaken for another’s is vexing. This duplicity is made even more complicated and public through the expansive yet undiscerning World Wide Web, where names are easily searchable but identity is always indeterminate. A friend, having done some research on your practice might remark, I had no idea you had a Master’s degree from Princeton, or I didn’t realize you have shown so extensively in Europe. Eliciting the slightly envious reply that unfortunately, your friend had confused you with someone else.
