The gowanaus creature feature.. with my snalis

 These are my newest creatures... finger snails, there are a whole bunch more to come, larger and smaller, but right now they are on view at the gowanus print lab in a show called the gowanus creature feature.. what would lurk beneath the murky waters of the gowanus? these guys.

sometimes you have to throw your hand into the fire

And here she is.  A bit rough and tumble, a little discombobulated- but all back together.. I am still trying to understand the connotations involved with the addition of color., and weather  or not that adds or takes away from the work. 







The poignancy of the work lies in the thin balance between the realistic form and the creation of unimaginable configurations.  The person has been put together. 
A series of parts to make a whole- an investigation into the oddity that is the human form I live in.  I found it rather strange to work with a copy of myself as it was simply a form instead of me- the disconection between the fact that it was not me in the slightest was a subconscious battle.  It took me some time to be able to cut the form up.  Once I did, it was a liberating feeling.  I was able to look at the smaller pieces and figure out how I would put it back together. Some days you feel like you are just falling apart, and you have to pull it together.

Imagine a large child having lost his head.
Fiberglass, and plaster
LCS2010

Dreams are vehicles in which we are able to disassociate our given reality from our imagined one. We have the ability to reach the depths of our unconscious mind while leaving the physical world behind.


This project is about the dis-embodiment we experience while dreaming. I have used the image of a face, attached to a balloon to represent how, when we dream, our mind has the freedom to explore the elasticity of truth that we as individuals create with our perception of reality. This freedom from known realities allows us as beings to escape the troubling boundary between the waking world and the magical possibilities hidden behind sleeping eyes. Thus, we can birth magic with our bodies because our dreams will transcend the distant
world of the mind.


Although the piece maintains a playful element it still addresses feelings of discomfort such as alienation and marginalization which traditionally manifest in the subconscious. Imagine a small child having lost their balloon, or in this case, a large child having lost their head- The image might be comical but the connotation is sad and rather lonely.
