Hope Unraveling – Exhibition Synopsis

I realize this exhibition just completed ten days ago, but it's wild how quickly I move onto new work and what's to come. Moments like this give me a moment to reflect on what Hope Unraveling meant to me as an artist and the challenge I posed to myself. My fifth solo exhibition debuted more work than any before along with Hope is the Prelude to Misery, a moving video sculpture that seemed to captivate viewers throughout the weekend. My intention with this show was to deconstruct the word "hope." To put it in a different light and allow audiences......

I Saw A Hellscape – Immersive Video Installation Premieres

What captivated Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania last fall at Technicolor Hellscape is now available to be experienced online. This installation is a very ambitious concept mixing a multitude of mediums creating a visual and auditory occurrence. Three video sources help to open the hellscape with monitors, projector and a physical sacrifice plate creating a unique composition with various ways to witness the nightmarish expedition. The amount of time I had in this video installation was insane. From creating the spoken word musical composition, physical elements, the technical production and of course the nearly nine minute unique video edits on each screen to......

The Fathers of Undoing: A Visitation

The Fathers of Undoing: A Visitation is a video installation mixing a multitude of mediums creating a visual and auditory experience. A chaotic tandem of three video sources combined with a spoken word musical composition and a hanging tapestry spilling to the floor make up this unique piece. Comprised of three 4k monitors granting the visitation and bringing to life three charcoal pieces (Prognostication of Susceptibility, Conception of Esoteric Undoing and The Third Time’s a Harm). This work definitely borders on new ground pushing the original physical works beyond their identity making this a bizarre innovation. “The idea that art......

The Third Time’s a Harm Opens

Well, what a way to open my third exhibition! Thank you to everyone who took time out of their lives, traveled far and of course, purchased a piece from my opening this past Friday. The Third Time's a Harm exhibition is something I haven't stopped working on in months and it was beautiful for the chaos to come together in such a way. Being surrounded by people who appreciate my work was something I am very thankful for. The Fathers of Undoing: A Visitation (my latest video installation) seemed to steal the show creating a video and auditory experience that......

Red Velvet Fluid Vignette

My words so smooth, glossed over your heads with commas scraping whatever is left of you. Commas cut, I'll bleed you wet. Red velvet fluid vignette. You know I've got the combination to the blood bank (anything but) safe between your thighs. So attached to death, advocate for the flies. I'll get out what's good from you, just to be close to your peak moment. And you'll know I control it.Red Velvet Fluid Vignette was also transformed into a spoken word musical composition. I hope you enjoy this writing piece and another taste of why I have been continually referred......

Art Exhibition Synopsis

Well, as I am finally getting back to normal life (if there is such a thing for me), but my art exhibition this last weekend went amazing. The amount of time and energy I put into it was entirely worth it and I hope those in attendance enjoyed it. I want to thank everyone who came out for it (special thanks to the person who flew from LA and close friends for making the long trek) and got to see my video sculpture along with over a dozen new pieces and countless prints. Debuting over a dozen new charcoal originals......

The Third Series Released

After all this time, THE THIRD SERIES is here! These particular set of pieces were born out of my obsession with detail, quality and conceptual continuity. I wanted to deliver upon these in excess and I knew THE THIRD SERIES would be very, very special because of that. The number three is quite significant and its importance to me as an artist is immeasurable. It's the foundation of story telling; a beginning, middle and end. It's at the heart of many fictional deities, most well known, the holy trinity. It has always crept into my work, my name and the......

You’re Layered in Never Will Be’s

"You're layered in never will be's and lines dividing your misery. Unconscious, unconsciously." I want to remind your weakest moment to visit your mind. It vibrates between thoughts before it copies, echoes and thickens resembling spoon-fed comforts. Your vulnerability is what I will play with, like strings connected to your spine. Bending and mending, trauma and stars align. Your back like piano keys, vertebrae minor chords. I'll strike them all. You forget my control over mood and I want to remind you, your weakest moment hasn't happened yet. Your "never again" is painted over in your favorite color, regret.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 **UPDATE......
