The Elevisite Corpse:
Spring 2012
I was going through some images on my
desktop and came across these from an installation a did when I was in
school. Our Art Department's elevator has, since I first became a
student, been "suffering" from layers and layers of graffiti. To remedy
this, the Department decided to rent it out as an exhibition space. I
jumped at the opportunity because this elevator, so old, tiny, and
creepy, is so characteristic of our Department, and is used by nearly
every artist at the University (the department lies on the 6th & 7th
floor).
I,
personally, loved the graffiti. I thought of the elevator as a
wonderful creative space, regardless of legality. I didn't want to
change this, but channel that energy into a more intentional space.
Thus: the Elevisite Corpse, which is just a play on words modeled after
the Exquisite Corpse game, an experiment played by the Surrealists where
different people draw different parts of a creature's body. The result is a bizarre collaboration. Enjoy!
Blue Tribe
There's something BLUE going on.....
The Blue Tribe has migrated from the Northern Circle right onto my studio desk. They've told me all sorts of tales from their travels and are teaching me how to read the stars.
More of the Blue Tribe can be seen on my [website].
All pieces are for sale at my [shop].

Found Object Necklaces
I've been working on these guys for a couple weeks. Making them was totally fun and pushed me to work with what materials I have. The only purchased items are brass wire, brass chain, and a small collection of beads from a flea market. The rest was collected around my city.
These (and more!) are available for sale on my >>Etsy Shop<<.
Proceeds will go toward my plane ticket back home to the States.
Thanks everyone!
