temporary installation : @9to5.tv EOD 2 : 24' x 24' x 10' : wood, latex, found technology - - - - The last 16 months has been filled with work alongside three very good friends. our effort is to create an event that blurs the line of what happens inside + outside a physical space, the definition of collaboration, and the means in which we are all connected. over the course of the next 30 days we will be hosting hundreds of hours of creative actions streamed live. join our works in progress. ///// www.9to5.tv //// (at 9to5.tv)

interior installation 10 : manus manum lavat : detail right : 33 ft. x 10 ft. x 6 in. : photo by Kristen Fortier - - - - - swatch totems like this can be found at nearly every installation site. most frequently it is these 5 colors. this hybrid of cmyk/ryb has been in nearly all of my work over the last six years (only a few commissioned works fall outside of the palette).

temporary installation : abrantes - - - - taken on the last day of the @canal180 creative camp 2015. (at Castelo De Abrantes)

test colors for @sodotrack mural project. - - - - - all in attempts to better understand the color permanence of each base, and maintain consistency across all colors that can be inconsistent when scanned and mixed by the paint companies. The composition calls for 21 even steps, will take 51 gallons to cover the 10 surfaces in the coming week. (at South Downtown, Seattle)

Collaborative Works : The Flat one, The Big one, The Column one, The Hanging one 70 ft. x 15ft. x 15 ft. : Mixed Media Collaboration with @clemensbehr and Raby Fofana Schau Fenster Gallery : Berlin DE - - - - working with @clemensbehr has made a lasting impact on the way i interact with the world around me. The ease and speed in which he manipulates raw material into line,form, and space is an amazing thing. It's hard to express the amount of respect i hold for him, as the two weeks with @clemensbehr still serves as motivation/inspiration to dive deeper into the uncomfortable space within, to question the constructs that act as the foundation of my work, and to savor the act of making. (at Berlin - Kreuzberg)

#placesmegangoes (at Waterfowl Lakes)

Temporary Installation : Grena midway grid acrylic on invasive japanese cedar - - - - the residency from within the crater rim. 14 days of walking trails in attempts to learn a place; the battle of endemic vs invasive : a scientific resuscitation of an ecosystem in isolation. With the coming of night, a silence awaited. a time of near pitch black in the space between the suns early setting behind the craters wall, and the moons delayed rise. for an hour or so, I became the only potential light source for kilometers in all directions. (at Lagoa Das Furnas, Azores, Portugal)
