Under This Roof Documentation My First solo show

Vinyl lettering makes me really happy, and plus it was my first show title so i was a little giddy. This is also the last stupid picture of me with heinous red hair. 

 The opening of my show, pre-pictures before it got busy.

 People watching the premiere of "What Is Meant, Is Felt" Film by Chris Durr and myself.

Couldn't have done it with out this guy. 

 

 My reason for surviving. my lovely 'wife' Jessica, sisters Tay and Sarah-- and my insane parents

who allowed me to put them through all this and build 16 -8 foot walls in their garage.

I thought the show went great. I had over 2,000 people for the weekend of the opening, and several more during the following weeks. Thank you bff's Brandon, Lyd, CJ, Austin, Colin, Mickey, Jason, Tweet, and everyone else that i don't want to type. This was a tear jerking experience that i couldn't have made it through without you. We can now check this off the 'things to do' list.

statements

I want to explore. I want to discover things that I didn’t know existed. I want to use light to map my adventures and pave the way for others to find me. I use my dreams, my insecurities and my aspirations as tools to create worlds that my viewers can get lost in, using their own assumptions and imagery to add to the reality or enchantment of these fabricated worlds.

I create photographic stills and video. The ambiguity between what is staged and what is ‘actual’ creates intrigue and questions the reality of where these spaces could or do exist. Narrative suggests story and therefore a movement, a story needs to progress in order to be told. I want to be able to add to the meaning of my still images by giving them a place, a past, a present and future existence. My roll as an artist in is more than a creator; I am a character in the creation of these preserved moments. Acting as participant and a witness of processes and final work. With my work I try and enlighten and question the perception of what is ‘actual’ and the limits in which reality can occur.
