About The Artwork
Shortcode No.1 Two sizes: 15 x 15" image on 17 x 22" sheet, edition of 35 25 x 25" image on 30 x 30" sheet, edition of 5 Available on canvas by special order A continuation of the Texting Man series, this piece looks at the ever-shifting edge where human beings and technology intersect. As we walk through the city and its canyon shadows we move in and out of light. We move also between focus and distraction, interiority and alertness to our surroundings. The man walking here moves in his own private but public halo, lit by the light of technology, and the off-stage lamps of the streetlight and the sun. I work in many kinds of collage and printmaking, and I am currently looking at ways to work as spontaneously with digital collage as I do with paper. I look in my digital processes for the beautiful surprise and the accidental offsets and "mistakes" that happen on an analog press. This man was photographed in the Before Times when people went to work, walking along the street, unmasked. I modified him in many ways with bits of shortcode and color, thinking in terms of silkscreen or etching plates, shifting and overlaying colors as though they were wet ink. The final print is a limited edition print on rag paper printed in archival pigment inks.

Throughout my work I explore impermanence as it occurs in the urban landscape and in nature. My architectural prints and mixed media pieces focus on the radical reshaping of the built landscape through gentrification and de-industrialization. As we are confronted with change and our relationship to it, I am interested in the question of how much of the past we value and hold onto, and how much we let go to make the future our “now.” My work lives on the edge between nostalgia and accommodation, mediating through the elements of surface and iconic structure to a conversation about history, identity and sense of place. I have been a calligrapher and letter form artist for much of my professional art career, creating well known brandmarks for film, books and packaging. I have created custom typographic identities for Kitty Kelly, Clive Barker, Naomi Judd, and Anne Rice among others, and movie titling for Dreamworks and Walt Disney. As a fine artist I bring my passion for mark making and the architecture of letter forms into the abstract realm. I have a calligrapher's subtle sense of surface and texture, and incorporate calligraphic mark making into many of my pieces. I use photography, digital composition, printmaking, mixed media and collage, shifting as needed to suit my subject matter. I embrace new media and the infinite ways in which the analog and the digital can be shaken, stirred and poured into a new creative form.
