What my hand saw, 2021. I like the idea that the hand can 'see' in a sense, making a picture in the mind of what it feels. A kind of synesthesia. It's based on a hand-sketch from a few years prior, but the germ for the idea comes from the early 90s.
It’s so nice to see this custom print installed in the office of Giorgia Lera. Giorgia is an aerospace engineer at Lafer Spa, a textile processing company in Italy. She reached out in 2019, after seeing my work in a magazine.
I’m very happy to share my first art-furniture commission. These three clothing sculptures serve as bases for a glass-topped table. The color scheme was inspired by California’s legendary sunsets, but through the lens of memory, fantasy and photo manipulation.
I was awarded two arts grants in 2021. With support from New York Foundation of The Arts and Queens Council on The Arts, I created a sculpture made from wood and thousands of second-hand garments. The clothing was sourced from the local community during the pandemic and is a tribute to the people of New York City.
