“Bower”
Mixed media on paper mounted on cradled panel
8” x 8” x 2”
Here’s my piece for this year’s “Suggestivism,” opening this Friday at MondoPOP Gallery in Rome.
I was inspired by the male bowerbird, which builds a structure and decorates it with found objects (usually natural, but sometimes man-made if it lives near humans) in order to attract a mate.
Here’s my LOST-inspired piece for Gallery 1988’s “Bad Robot” show, which pays tribute to the TV shows and movies created by JJ Abram’s production company, Bad Robot. I chose to do another depiction of Ben Linus (my first one, for a LOST-specific show, can be seen here). This time he’s witnessing the crash of Oceanic Flight 815.
The show opens this Friday at Gallery 1988 (WEST), so check it out if you’re in the area!
“Rocket Pop”
Ink and Photoshop
Hey guys! Here’s my piece for the “GALAXY” show at Telegraph Gallery (the same people who bring you SEIBEI), which features screen-printed editions inspired by outer space and the night sky.
One of the prints will be sold framed at the gallery and the rest will be sold online (unframed) for just 28 bucks! Whaaat. (Up there you can see a photo of the framed print.)
They’re 18” x 24” on charcoal grey paper in an edition of 80.
All prints in the show go on sale tonight at 5 PM EST! Check back at the gallery site to purchase: http://telegraphgallery.com/
