November Survival

Last report (of a few weeks ago), everything is still intact and the animals have not staged a formal protest.

 Not yet, anyway.

Assembling my Artist Studio in Greenpoint


And this is the world of color I was then able to create. 





Old Cell

The following are pictures of my temporary apartment in NYC, when I was in transition from an apartment of 3 years.  This is what I was escaping from when I was offered the Wildcat.

It is important to always be thankful.  And to always be moving on.

WILDCAT/MOUSETRAPS: The Description

WILDCAT/MOUSETRAPS is intended to be a site-specific multi-media installation questioning the dichotomies of wild vs tame and brutal vs beautiful.

During the Summer of 2014, the Studio Barn in Claryville will be transformed into a workshop of items. Each will have an element of Mousetraps and will include Found objects, repurposed into Art.

Why Mousetraps? They are manufactured as killing machines, to be hidden from sight. To remove small pests from City life or Country life. The artist has been exploring the possibilities of these tiny canvases for the part few years. The grain of wood can call to mind dream landscapes, or the rectangular series can refer to the windows of a building at night.

These everyday objects are not what they seem, and the goal of WILDCAT/MOUSETRAPS is to play with the possibility of creating an Other. To transform the Brutal into Beauty.

Studio, As of 5/25/14
