Facade with Jordan Tate

Images of Facade, a collaboration with Jordan Tate - curated by Elizabeth Denny. Facade was shown at SPRING/BREAK Art Show this March in NYC, and at Marshall University, WV in January. A mixed media approach to an European garden, Facade exposes the structures of artifice like an exploded diagram showcasing the trompe l'oeil and the foundation that supports it. A high/low rendering allows 3D to be flattened and 2D to be expanded. We are playing on these expectations while dismantling them at the same time, trying to recreate historic scenes that never existed.

Wave Pool - Cincinnati 5

"Double Dresdner Monkey, Music Lesson" was recently shown at Wave Pool in Cincinnati 5: Artists Impacting the Community. Cincinnati 5 is part of a new yearly publication aimed at documenting 5 visual artists who promote and build the Cincinnati art community. To corresponds with the release of the book, each artist participated in an exhibition at Wave Pool. The book and exhibition were initiated and organized by artist Emily Moores, and we are flattered to be included in the first round. 

Artist Greg Swiger also interviewed us for his Final Friday podcast about this exhibition - you can listen here if you would like. It is so sweet - thank you Greg!

cups


We tag teamed these cups while in china and they are quite a thing, I kind of hope they don't sell, but I always say that then regret it.

Welcome to the year of the monkey! Image from our exhibition "Post Local" at the Mufei Gallery in Jingdezhen China, which just closed today. We have been in and out of the country for the last couple of months, and have sadly let this blog lag a little...
