Artist Talk
Thursday, June 21
7-9pm


Join me for a short talk and discussion about my inspiration and process for my painting and the site specific drawing created for this exhibition.  Baltimore artist Elena Volkova will be joining me to discuss her subtly evocative "Airscape" photographs.  A reception and informal discussion with the artists all follow.
"Slipping a variety of words into the blank of "_____scape" artists investigate the semantic origins of landscape as condition, shape or idea rather than the depiction of scenery."

"Confluence" Installation Photos
On May 19, 2012 I installed "Confluence" at VisArts one 15 hour stretch.  The drawing challenges the viewers sense of space by juxtaposing conflicting imagery with the structure of the wall. The drawing will exist for the duration of the exhibit before it is destroyed.  See snapshots of the install on my blog.  A time-lapse video/animation is under construction to document the drawing and will be posted on my website upon completion.
