|
|
|
|
|
I have been a painter and a sculptor, the difference seems to be the pain in my back.
|
|
|
Artists often paint fantasies; I have tried to live mine. In the more extreme performances like "Swimmin' the River", I am transformed into my work. I am both artist and art as the single form (My body) repeats within the landscape for thousands of miles.
|
|
|
I am committed to making the ordinary extraordinary.

|
|
| Personal Interest |
|
|
|
|
|
I am the bastard son of the Italian Futurists on a life-long search for the spiritual in art.
