SWIPE Magazine and Opening, Featuring my talented partner Lambert Fernando

Have you seen the hundreds of guards at the Met? Most of them are artists. They stand guarding the world's masterpieces for hours, absorbing the aura of these priceless works, absorbing the zeitgeist of the museum before going home and making their own work! Pretty cool, right? Well, these museum professionals and other Met employees have put out the second edition of SWIPE magazine, featuring the work of these artists. Along with the magazine will be an awesome group show at 25CPW, a gallery on Central Park. And I am pleased to announce that my significant other, Lambert Fernando, has an amazing installation piece which is part of the show and magazine.

PROJECT BASHO Opening and, The Brooklynite's Give a Tour of Some 'Hood in Philly

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.

LOST UTOPIAS opening at Broadway Gallery

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!
