Two Years. Much of what I have to show on this page comes from the fact that I have spent the past two years as a student, bending from the world of commerce to that of academia and art. Two Years is my 2009 MFA thesis, documenting my show and some of the process that lead up to it. Most of this work concerns media's role in the perception of long periods of time. Printed at Blurb or downloadable as a pdf (5mb)

Shows

Known By Sight, May 25–June18, 2010. At the Arts and Cultural Council for Greater Rochester gallery. The reception will be on June 4, part of the First Fridays event for June. It's very much about evidence of long change that is left embedded in the rock that makes up the surface we walk around on. That evidence, left in the original recording medium of the earth, is there for interpretation, re-recording, and re-imagining by several of our more recent media. Here is the show invitation, as well as a quicktime tour.

In May 2009 I had my graduate thesis show at the Fosdick-Nelson Gallery in Alfred, New York, sharing the gallery with classmate Rebekkah Palov. The show consisted of twenty-six installed prints and five video pieces that alternated between a single channel and corner projection two-channel pieces in a seperately walled area of the gallery. Here are some documentation photos. The long version is in Two Years above.

Video and Sound

Before the fall of 2007 I had never shot a frame of video or recorded any sound despite many years as a still photographer. Most of these are pieces I started or completed as part of my masters program at Alfred University in Electronic Integrated Arts. See selected Video and Sound.

Current Projects

Driving from Rochester to Alfred weekly I travel through a patch of ground that is criss-crossed with roads and highways, yet sees very little foot traffic. It is surrounded by parks on two sides, but during the past eight years I don't think I have ever seen anyone walking there. For a long time I have wondered about this and other places like it, and this fall I started to photograph there. It is hard to take everything in at one gulp, for the scale of these roads is way beyond the scale of a pedestrian, and there are efforts made to prevent foot traffic, from signs warning against tresspassing to chain link fences. Here is a sample of what I've found, which for now I am calling Intersections. Of course these and other sites I have been working on have already been covered by Google from above.
