'Hunger Game', 2012: A juxtaposition of Nature & Humankind (seascape of sunrise & the human-made painted stripe of fossil fuel across the sky)linked by a linear set of repetitive seagulls with one vacant space where one has left in order to engage the sustenance necessary to life. Whether Nature or Humankind, each must eat - each must play the game. Should we find ways to do such within a partnership, perhaps the absolute best of each will shine. bon apptit!

A native of Baltimore, MD, Ive made N.Y.C. my home for more than half my life. I occupy a space between a world as it is, and one cloaked in personal aspirings of a world where the tension fraught relationship between Nature & humanity may evolve to one guided more by long-term possibilities of preservation, rather than a short-sighted possibility of profit. Contrasts of Nature & humanity often join forces in ways that are prophetic as to the conceptual gulf separating the two. These tensions are primary to my efforts at creating a visual discourse, one where what is, is matrix to possibilities of what might be. Visual formalities, and narrative content are not mutually exclusive, but form an osmotic linking of the two. While Nature & humanity form concerns primary to this presentation of works, some embrace subject matter beyond such issues.
