SURROUNDED

Image: Trialouges (Shadow) by Polly Yates

I am pleased to announce that I have a piece included in Roman Susan's Spring Art Group Show, featuring 30 amazing artists. The opening reception was on Friday, March 29 and it was lovely to meet some of the artists in attendance. If you have not yet seen the exhibit, you will have until May 4 to immerse yourself in the floor to ceiling, salon style exhibition. Swing by the closing reception and say hello!

I plan on heading back to the gallery to photograph some of my favorite works from the exhibit to share. Stay tuned....

"Oh, the Horror!" at Space Club HQ

I will be showing two pieces from the series "Drone Porn," Monster F**k 1 and 2. These mixed media works juxtapose static imagery taken from satellite unmanned drone attack footage found online, with imagery from vintage Playboy magazines and 80's mainstream horror films. 

“Oh, the Horror!” is Space Club HQ's 2nd floor exhibition running through the month of October showcasing works of art that deal with the subject of ‘horror’, from the comedic to the grotesque. 


Opening Reception SATURDAY 10/06/2012; 6PM-9PM

 These pieces are part of the series Home Invasion. They represent the human companions that generally have an exclusive type of access to their owners and possess an allegiance toward the household as protectors or guardians of the home. I wanted to capture a particular type of energy that  alludes to their mystique.
