One of my photos was included in a ginormous group show at a non-for-prof space in Philadephia. Me, the hubby, and my crew---also known as Necroshmooter and Brandone---hopped in our trusty green volkswagen and sang our way to Philly. At a rest stop somewhere in the wilds of Jersey.

Well this past Tuesday my first solo show of world's fair work opened at the Broadway Gallery in Soho. The whole thing came about quickly, so the show is only up for 9 brief, tantalizing days. The opening was amazing---tons of friends, supporters, colleagues, and professors from grad school came and supported. People responded very positively to the project. It was awesome!

My photograph of the 1876 Philadelphia toilet buildings caught a lot of people's imaginations.
I am an artist and professor based in Brooklyn, New York. Currently I am on the faculty of the School of Visual Arts, the International Center of Photography, and Kingsborough Community College, where my courses include 'Architecture and Photography,' 'Modern Ruins: Shooting Brooklyn's Industrial Landscape,' and 'The Art of Digital Photography I.' I am represented by Wall Space Gallery in Santa Barbara and Seattle, and also have work available through Daniel Cooney Fine Arts in New York. My largest project to date examines the remaining sites and structures of world's fairs internationally. I am most interested visually in the conversations architecture has both within itself and with the surrounding environment. I live in Red Hook with my husband, the painter Lambert Fernando, and our son Benjamin.
