Julius bootleg print, 2006-7
silkscreen and colored pencil on paper, 18"x24"

Julius is the oldest gay bar in West Village and home to maybe the best cheeseburgers in New York.
During one of my first visits to the bar, upon being introduced to the late and great bartender Joe, I inquired about this drawing signed Lowry, 1978. Not much information was culled regarding Lowry or the drawing. It's just there on the wall with all the other pieces of history. I offered my screenprinting services to the bar and made some bootleg tees and posters.

How did she find herself here?
Nancy Holt, 1973-76
slide projection installation: 40 text & image slides on auto-replay
images projected from the ground to approximately knee height

In 1997, I visited Holt's seminal earthwork 'Sun Tunnels', situated in the Great Basin Desert, near Lucin, Utah. I shot these stills then, and made a set of slides by hand, using an outdated photo technology designed for creating films for exposing images for silkscreen. In spring 2007, I wrote these poetry-texts, in exploration of the erotics of collaboration and how pleasure lies in a landscape.

On the occasion of the Whitney Independent Study Program Studio Exhibition,

cotton thread on paper, 5 3/4" x 7 1/2", 2006-7
Adopting text from Monique Wittig’s 1975 novel The Lesbian Body, I traipse between worlds of sexuality, violence, and love. With images of the Abu Ghraib prison perversions in our conscious and subconscious, I enter into this territory of violence, permitting the viewer to reflect on their own sexuality and desire.
