“InterFaces” new digital prints, all based on the little sculptures and assemblages I make by hand in the studio. My month long digital stone carving residency in Italy had a profound effect. Ideas I’ve been working on for months coming together…

Here’s looking at you kid. Left: Me coming back from my first trip to Italy, 1996 Right: Me headed to Italy, today! 2026 Differences, (besides 30 years), I never wore pink back then 🖤💖

Learned a new word & personality classification today: “otrovert”. As an artist, I think it’s easy to attach to this one.. Got me thinking on all the “___vert” words and all the “___path” ones. What about an otropath-sociovert or a psychovert-extrapath? Then I went back to doom scrolling

Test prints for “Boring, Board Face” (or maybe I’ll call it “Looksmaxxing”) & “The Last Comedian: A Skullpture” (*both based on physical assemblages I’m making in the studio)

A new set of digital prints all titled Woman with her Throat Cut(After Giacometti) This sculpture has been on my mind lately. Obviously I guess due to my recent surgery, but of equal impact, was an article from 2018, in #hyperallergic, “Fixating on Giacometti’s Doomed Woman” Barry Nemett

𝙏𝙍𝘼𝙉𝙎𝙁𝙀𝙍 𝘿𝙤𝙬𝙣𝙡𝙤𝙖𝙙: 𝘼𝙡𝙞𝙫𝙚𝙉𝙀𝙏, a 10 year ongoing project by @transfergallery on view at @nguyenwahedart in #NYC thru Mar 7. Here are a few clips of my 5m 30s 3-channel video ‘Model of Me’ that weaves in physical sculptures I’m making in the studio & features my avatar of 9 years, C.A.R.L.A G.A.N.

I made some snow angels in Brooklyn today. No angels are coming to save us from this fascist regime and their wrathful and murderous actions. But symbols matter, and there are far too many hateful one’s out there right now, so just a tiny act of hopeful messaging in a snowstorm
