art, animation, & nonsense
My latest installation, The Hollow Book, at the “Rooms to Let” temporary artspace. The event is located in a pair of foreclosed houses in Cleveland’s Slavic Village, and runs for only two days (5/16-17), making this installation more ephemeral than most. Fitting, given the setting.
This coming Saturday (4/12), I will be participating in SPACES Gallery’s 2014 Monster Drawing Rally! For those unfamiliar with the event, about 100 artists will be drawing live in the gallery over one-hour shifts (one is not required to draw monsters per se, but really, why wouldn’t you?). At the end of each shift, the finished drawings go up for sale immediately, with all proceeds benefiting SPACES. I’ve participated a couple years in the past, and it’s always a tremendously fun, energetic event. I’ll be drawing during the 8-9pm shift.
A belated update on the paintings that have kept me busy for the past few months. All of the following are oil on wood, measuring 10×10″, and all are currently on display at Cleveland’s Rotten Meat Gallery.
After some months of preparation, I am terribly excited to announce an upcoming solo show of my work at Cleveland’s Rotten Meat Gallery. In Defense of Absurd Cosmologies will feature recent paintings, including the completed Falls series, as well a number of brand-new works from this year. The opening reception will be on March 14th, from 6-10pm.
