Hi there, I’m Ren

I’m an artist, poet and hermit. My work reveres the natural mystery and shares dreams of total liberation.

My home is downriver of Detroit, Michigan, a world of wetlands and industry. I now reside in another rust-belt city: Indianapolis. Being queer centers my relationships to these resilient places, nature and the other-than-humans often featured in my pieces, who have always provided me unconditional refuge.
