Untitled Art Show
Hey... I get to be on the Untitled Art Show this February! If you have a chance to listen go to http://www.untitledartshow.com.
Creating art is a constant process of study, experimentation and observation; achieving maximum meaning with the most minimal of images. It is in this achievement of multiple implications that the work is allowed to lend itself to interpretation through both space and time; infinite and singular. Art truly is its own dimension that identifies itself through knowledge and perception.

Vertigo Exhibition in Westword
;)
Photographed by Tiffany Fitzgerald. Photo courtesy of Westword. Recently I was included in an exhibition at Vertigo Art Space in Denver, Colorado. The exhibition, curated by artist Mike McClung, centered around how as artists we are pushed to focus on a specific idea or imagery and become known for it but when we step outside of that how we can be pushed aside or ignored.
It has happened to me several times in recent history... and it sucks! I have always enjoyed working in a variety of media... painting, drawing, sculpture, installation, photography, performance, etc. My degree is in sculpture but I am best known for my photography... but I work constantly in all of the above... I am thankful for my following but I also love to create... plain and simple.
Anyhow, if you have a chance to check out the exhibition that would be great. Let me know what you think.
In the meantime, read Tiffany Fitzgerald's article in Westword at http://blogs.westword.com/showandtell/2012/01/curator_mike_mcclunk_readies_f.php
