ARCHIVES
June, July, August, and September
June
I feel like these deadlines and work have snuck up on me. I am actively preparing for when I go on site next week to start building and installing my contribution to the 3 person show Make Ends Meet at The Flanders Gallery along with Crocheted Olek and Mathew Curran.

July
After I get down from the Genie Lift at Flanders Gallery I will be starting my tenure as The Summer Artist in Residence at Artspace Raleigh. While there I will have a solid month to work in the gallery as opposed to my typical 8-10day ramp ups. I am particularly looking forward to revisiting the wall space and exploring the column in the center of the gallery. I also imagine the difference between the very high ceilinged space of Flanders and the lower ceiling intimate space of Artspace will provide viewers the chance to experience two related but different works using the same materials and process.

August
In August I will be exploring the outer limits of what I can do while working upside down at the Cairns Festival in North Queensland Australia. I really wonder if when I assemble the sticks in they will fall in the opposite direction of how they fall here.
September
Finally in September I will be in Residence at CSU Fresno, where I imagine the work I make will be formally and visually informed by the work of the preceding months. Or it might just be a lot of fun to build over a balcony in a library space.
