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.
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.
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.
