ABOUT THE ARTWORK
Lou was a 78-year-old SAG character actor and amateur model who love posing in my elaborate studio shoots--the more outrageous the better. After COVID forced us into quarantine, I asked if he wanted to keep collaborating long distance, and he sent me this selfie: a dick pic. He saw it as a work of art, so I digitally altered it to create a painterly feel and give it a frame. He was delighted with the final image. Not long after that, his wife emailed to tell me he had died of coronavirus. I created this elaborate frame as a memorial to his life, imagining what he might have carried with him as he went. I don't know how to answer the standard question "is this artwork framed." The frame is the artwork. The frame defines the artwork. There is no part of this that is not integral to it, but it has all the frame that it needs already. Dimensions and weight are approximate, but I'll get good measurements soon and update this. Or just ask.
