I’m am deinstalling Tag 1 on August 19th at A Condos
If you haven’t seen it yet, you should. I’m really proud of the result and plan to explore more work of this ilk.
Please go see it in person. The fabric plays a trick on the eye.
Walk into the lobby anytime at 389 Washington Avenue, Jersey CityYou can’t miss it covering the entire wall.
Side Eye will be displayed on banners installed prominently in Montclair’s business and arts districts this Fall.
The Limited Edition, 3/5 aluminum print will be displayed in one of SMI’s gallery spaces during the fall of 2018 (more info to come). DM me if you are interested in this piece. There are two left in this edition.
A huge thank you to juror, Nette Forne Thomas for selecting my work. I am humbled.

I printed my Woman Woman Selfie onto heavy fabric for a 10’x 8′ tapestry.

The show, Infinite Possibilities is the personification of my artist statement, for real for real.
WE all wear masks. Masks to pretend, to hide, to celebrate or just to put our best face forward in a selfie.
I construct masks for protection. What may start off as an ugly statement, in the end, becomes something beautiful.
I transform drawings, photographs, along with found and meticulously collected materials into self-portraits.
I photograph my process and then digitally manipulate these images to extend the narrative as part of my personal mythology.
Fragmented identity juxtaposed with the existence of infinite possibilities is a recurring theme in my work.
The show consists of four early mixed media works 24″x12″ , two large aluminum prints 40″x30″, Headache and ZYX, one 30″x30″ mixed media portrait, three underworld goddesses 20″x20″ and three Gossip girl masks 20″x20″. Im also draping two 20’x10′ fabric panels of my print “Tag 8” from the ceiling to floor in the seating area. Â
