REVERSIBLE
The Reversible takes many forms. This iteration explores a shelter that is capable of being but is not yet in existence.

 
 

CONCEALMENT DRAWINGS
These peices examine the spaces defined by two-dimensional works. I bring attention to hidden, small, in-between places. all works completed in 2008-09

  FORT SERIES
The Fort series is an exploration of secret hiding places. The paintings are interpretations of forts that neighborhood children built out of my discarded paintings and painting materials. All completed in 2009.
  BETWEEN THE WOODS AND THE WORLD
I've always made serious work of daydreaming. Between the Woods and the World is a 35 foot daydream about the territories that lay between child and adult worlds described through my interepretaion of childhood play habitats.
 
  CONNECT
Connect is an officially designated satellite exhibition of Prospect.1, the first international biennial on American soil. The paintings in Connect reeplicate the architectural dimensions of the exhibition site, a former New Orleans ice factory that now houses Trumpet, New Orleans' premier branding agency.

THE CONSTRUCTION OF MEMORY
The mother of Replay Road, The Construction of Memory is a series of five interpretive signs that pair interviews with adults about their childhood play places with early topographical maps of an historical Atlanta neighborhood. The piece explores the idea that personal history is a combination of fact and fantasy, evoking idealized space while referencing specific place.

 

 

 
  THE LONELY COLLECTIVE
The strength of the collective is that it works as a power base, usually for social or political change. That’s why I am really only kidding when I use the name, The Lonely Collective.

The Lonely Collective is a DJ mix, using other artists’ works and meshing them into my own images. I call them conscriptions rather than collaborations because I have not invited these artists to work with me. I haven’t even asked permission.
 
 

PARISH
Let’s put an end to the stale stories of the south right now. Even Katrina has become charming in its tragic folksiness. I want to tell you about the places around me I was surprised to find and share accounts I have collected from other people. I’m interested in how we remember things, so I work from memory – yours and mine.
