Drawing upon family experiences and t...   [more]

Windshield Perspective focuses on a short yet dense stretch of Beverly Boulevard from Normandie to Virgil. The windshield is both a lens and a shield; a screen which acts much like a magnifying glass to clarify the view and as a scrim to obscure the sight. This drive along Beverly stands for hundreds, if not thousands, of daily journeys through the city’s landscape. The exhibit is about seeing...   [more]

My aim is to be understood by everyone. I reject the ‘depth’ that people demand nowadays, into which you can never descend without a veritable diving bell crammed with cabbalistic bullshit and intellectual metaphysics.
