the hanged man Drawing

layers of small digitally printed illustration cut outs are collaged into a three dimensional relief portrait of the hanged man from the major arcana of the tarot. in 2015 i was commissioned to create an animation for a public media gallery in tacoma, wa called the Tollbooth Gallery, based upon my drawing style. i had three months to come up with a video piece that could run on a loop 24 hours a day for 3 months and it could include sound. i am also a musician. sound art is a part of my daily practice so an opportunity to combine that work into my visual scope was exciting. i gathered a couple of friends who were editors and producers and started throwing drawing parties to build the character stills for what would become an 8 min long piece following the fools journey through the major arcana of the tarot. the work, called tarotpia, can be viewed here https://vimeo.com/185720867 where you will also find a more detailed account of how the work was made using a combination of old and new techniques in animation. later that year, 2015, i had my first solo show in los angeles at a gallery called Lei Min Space. for the 2 story exhibit i created 38 original works including this one. the show also included a short residency where in lived in and recorded in the gallery in chinatown and also produced two installation pieces, one a tablaeu of my work/life process and one an 8' x 4' time based collage from images from the film cut into hundreds of small forms.
