ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Acrylic Painting on 12" Vinyl Record Robots are used for many aspects of daily life and are programmed to "love" These robots are not programmed with the ability to love themselves or each other. They are built to love those they serve but to never serve themselves or other robots. All flowers in this world are to be presented with the roots up as opposed to the petals as the roots are the most important part of the plant.

At basis, and in every medium, I am a storyteller. I grew up in the late 70s and early 80s in NYC and graffiti artists were my first superheroes. They transformed my world. They were the first to show me the creative potential in everyday objects. I studied formally in film & fine art at Pratt Institute and currently live and work in Baltimore, MD. Even today, I am inspired by the surprising material, the under appreciated subject, the alternative perspective, the unlikely surface. I relish working with found materials because I am enamored with the story implied in the object. Why was it discarded? What was its former life? Once i have created a painting, portrait, collage, or film using this material, does its previous life speak to its new context in a compelling way? This conversation/tension/relationship between an original piece and a subsequent creative use harkens back to graffiti and hip hop, the garden in which I grew. I often use found footage/visual ephemera in my film and video work, mash technique and genre in unexpected ways. As society and culture gets more disposable I want us to give another look at those things we throw away; I work to find the eternal in the temporary, and to approach life's problems and conflicts with quirk and humor.
