ABOUT THE ARTWORK
Currently on exhibit in the Frieze Adjacent exhibit "18th Street Arts Center @ Fairmont MiraMar Hotel" Dates of Exhibition: February 19, 2024 - March 8, 2024 Lobby Gallery, Fairmont MiraMar Hotel, Santa Monica, California At dusk along Route 66, a vintage 1949 Oldsmobile Rocket 88 glides down the highway. The El Rancho Motel sign beckons beyond. I ventured solo from Southern California to Texas for a show of my artwork at The Other Art Fair in Dallas. The 2,000 mile drive took me across the western desert scapes of Nevada, Arizona, New Mexico, and West Texas. The espresso fueled hours brought back memories of cross country trips with my family when I was a kid. At night under western stars, my dad drove with the window open to keep him alert. My brother and I would scan the license plates on the trucks and autos around us, hoping to get all 50. The rushing sounds of wind and tires on the road muted my parent's conversation to a sort of road trip lullaby. I looked out the window as if I was in a movie. Each passing place, every passing car played a role in our family film. We drove from coast to coast - California to New Jersey and back. The last miles were always the most exciting. Driving up the New Jersey turnpike we could feel the power of Manhattan reaching out across the Hudson river. And on the return journey to California, we could see the glow of L.A. on the horizon as we grew close to home. Years later when I got out of college, the wanderlust remained. On nights when I didn't have to work the next day, I would take my car out on the road and drive hundreds of miles into the desert and back. As the pink light of sunrise glowed around me I would pull my car in back home. With the engine off, the car would lightly rumble like a horse after a run. I would pick up the morning paper from the driveway. I could taste fresh coffee already.
