Having explored decaying corners of Baltimore, Brooklyn and Barcelona through a socio-environmental lens, I am currently working on a body of screen prints based on images of fruit displays and patterns from regions of [...]

When I create a piece I like its meaning to be multifaceted. Because my piece may have many different meanings some of the meanings may be contradictory. I think this is a good thing because I don’t want my pieces to have one single dimension of meaning. A person can create art that has several [...]

Norm’s stories of Black Panthers, free dental clinics, giant snapping turtles, and war protests galvanized my pursuit for hope. The sense of urgency that the sixties brought has been marginalized and trivialized; my work [...]
