Castration Anxiety



Fabulous Valerie, with Mikey the cat, who just lost his balls.

By the way, I now have a portfolio website, so this blog will from now on be a place for outtakes, process shots, and random musings more than a showcase for my work. 2012 do or die.

Xenophilia I-VI

I'd like to thank Creamhotel and LMNT Gallery for enabling me to display this series at the Haired exhibition during Art Basel 2011. Had a ball.

STATEMENT:

Throughout the history of the human species hair has been used as a vehicle for symbolic expression.
Whether coded with religious, political, or social status, hairstyles have existed across the earth in
endless permutations. This piece showcases the transcendent beauty of human craft in the service of
communicating power via coiffure. Even ethnically transfigured, it is through the crown of hair that these
archetypes retain their majesty.

NEGATIVE SCANS:

CreamHotel is a very interesting project incorporating art and real estate created by my friends Virginia Villari and Stephan Blanc. They have lots of other cool stuff available, so enjoy.
If you note the size of the pieces I have available here, I think you will find them quite inexpensive.
