With a focus on narratives that interrogate schisms between digital and physical realities, Denver uses techniques highlighting the exchange of information and values within our content-driven media landscape. Denver creates immersive experiences for his audience, using information as a space to be entered through meditations on living in an instant-information economy.

Stenographer’s Diary 1-4 was a daily drawing performance practice. Using found stenography paper, Denver transitioned from a deep period of writing to drawing, using brush and ballpoint pens to articulate their state of mind, as they developed a visual vocabulary to record thought and memory. Their artwork is meant to examine the nature of queer identity, the boundaries of digital/analog existence, genetic and generative historicist phenomenology, and cultural identity.
