2018

Selected Works

In October 2017, my hometown of Santa Rosa, California was devastated by wildfires. With many of the stores and farms I used being affected, I had to find new local resources in order to keep going. Being hard to come by anyway, I scrambled to find new farms that would work with me. With a ton of emails and calls eventually I found success with a farm that produces more than I could ever use. How did they elude me all these years? With the blessing of larger quantities, I focused on pushing my work to another level of complexity. With the new volume, I was able to create extremely dense, tall and complex works. The largest pieces, for example, are composed of several hundred disarticulated skulls, each taking a month or more to complete.
