2008: Buffalo Hunt

This fabric painting is a surreal depiction of a universal buffalo hunt.

2007: Fluxcoat and 2008: Bert Crenca Dress

This is the fluxcoat I made for Bert in 2007. This dress is a portrait of Bert Crenca, AS220's founder. AS220 is an art space that hosts music and art shows. It is a non-juried space that is open for anyone to show their work. The dress is a tribute to Bert and his positive influence in Providence.

2008: Hand and (2006) Faces

These are ceramic.

2008: Mommy Misses Fluffy and Strawberry Horizon

These fabric paintings are made from recycled fabrics.

2008: Hurricane Barrier

This is a leaded tile with an opaque white glass frame.

2008:T-shirts

These are this year's round of recycled quilted-tees.

2007: Snow Vacation 4707

This fabric painting is a fuzzy vision of future after massive climate change. The family is enjoying artificial styrofoam snow in an enclosed dome. The dome is considered to be the controlled cooler climate while the outdoors is extremely hot. Outside the enclosed tunnels and dome, other animal life exists in trash structures. This is how I see the piece, but it is certainly to be taken however the viewer wants to take it. The details in this piece are endless and not to be overlooked.

2007: Awesome Brothers, Awesome Shirts

The Awesome Brothers are a Providence band who commissioned me to make portrait shirts for them to perform in. They used to wear these large furry body suits, so in the shirt I made them wearing the fur.

2007: Progressive Runway Project 3

This is a group shot of the third trash fashion show. Many people participated in this event. I created the runway, which consists of four bicycle carts that detach from the bicycles and connect together to create the runway. The carts are made from recycled steel, bike parts, and palettes.

2007: Nature's Bastard and The Physics of Dada-Lala

This is a ceramic tile that has since been leaded together. And this is a sculpture I made from waste found along the Narragansett Bay shoreline.

2006: Fleet tile and Hurricane Barrier Tile

2006: Joanette's Kissing Booth

Joanette is my middle-aged Rhode Island alter-ego. She has run a kissing booth since the 70's, always for a good cause.
I made the outfit and the booth and charge a dollar per kiss. The first image is from 2008, and the second is from 2006.

2006: Draw on Me

This performance piece happened at the closing show at the Safari Lounge in Providence. The evening began by shaving my head bald in the ladies bathroom. Then I stripped down to some cut-off leggings, undies, and pasties, tucked some markers into them and charged people $1 to draw on me.

2006: Leprechaun Dress

This dress is made from recycled t-shirts and other scrap fabric.

2006: Riot Grab Life Dress

This dress is made from recycled t-shirts and other scrap fabric.



This dress is made from recycled t-shirts and other scrap fabric.

2005: Brick Oven Bird

This framed tile is of the Steelyard in Providence. It is about 30 inches wide, but I don't have the exact measurements.

2005: Brittle Redevelopment

This abstract sculpture is made from hundreds of found ceramic architectural artifacts. There is no glue, it is entirely balanced. The piece took an entire evening to balance, and it feel apart numerous times in the creation. But after it was finished it stood tall for an entire month until the show came down. The drawing accompanying the sculpture dissects the piece, explaining the location of where each part was found.

2005: Resurrection and The Shit that Holds it Together

These sculptures are made from found ceramic figurines, toilet shards, and found ceramic water pipes. These sculptures are entirely balanced using small ceramic fragments as wedges. Because of the temporary nature of these pieces, I created paintings that document their existence. After the installation at RISD, I re-installed Resurrection in one of my favorite spots along the Providence shoreline.
