ABOUT THE ARTWORK
This piece was inspired by a marker in one of the paths of the Jardin du Luxembourg in Paris commemorating 7 members of the French Resistance shot by the Nazis on the 19th of August, 1944, just before the Nazis left Paris. I wanted to celebrate the light of their lives, their rich histories, their incredible sacrifices and I wanted the piece to be more of a celebration of their lives than a rehearsal of their deaths. There are seven rectangles, and seven circles, each with its own dynamic, but all clearly related.

American expat living in Paris. Registered landscape architect in another life who maintains a passion for all things architecture / landscape architecture / urbanism - related. I've been creating art and exhibiting for more than 40 years. Moved to Paris 2+ years ago to study those parks associated with a moment of violence in history, where today there is little, if any evidence of that violence -- the parks are typically places of beauty and recreation. That, too me, is a fascinating dichotomy. So far I have about 50 sites that fall into that category, and i'm sure I will find more with additional research. So the project is to catalog the sites; document, through verbal and visual histories how they have developed; document through my own photography how they are being used today, and then to create new interpretive artworks, blog entries, etc. It's a fascinating journey, and I invite you to come along!! In addition to the originals for sale here on , you'll find my blog at .
