🔜Upcoming shows

Saturday, November 5, 2016

I have two shows coming up: first is Alma Mater at the Hubbell St Galleries, San Francisco, an exhibition that focuses on a small selection of alumni who graduated within the last 10 years and who have been proactive in shaping the growing presence of a robust and revitalized art scene in the Bay Area. Runs from November 8-19 with an opening reception on Saturday November 12, 3:30pm.

Then I have work at the Contemporary Jewish Museum San Francisco in the Yud Video Project. The exhibition runs from November 25, 2016 to July 9, 2017, with an opening reception on Wednesday November 30.

Expanding on the upcoming contemporary art exhibition From Generation to Generation: Inherited Memory and Contemporary Art’s focus on recollections and reconstructions of the past, The Yud Video Project’s theme is “Memory.” Through the format of video and ever-accessible technology, moments are now recorded with the utmost ease and then translated into saved memories. However, edited video has tremendous power in recreating, rethinking, and reconstructing these very same moments. For this exhibition, submissions were encouraged to explore the unique ways memory is portrayed through video as an art form.

CCA at UNLV

Wednesday, April 1, 2015

Last week, a group of California College of the Arts MFA students travelled to the University of Nevada, Las Vegas for a whirlwind residency and show.

We thoroughly immersed ourselves in Las Vegas and produced an exhibition of entirely new, experimental works at UNLV’s Grant Hall Gallery.

In the spirit of the graduate class that produced the seminal “Learning from Las Vegas” (MIT Press, 1977), we had both a productive and super-fun time.

"Measuring Visual Disturbances" at SOMArts

Friday, October 3, 2014

My video collaboration "Measuring Visual Disturbances" with Elizabeth Moran will be screened at SOMArts on Friday October 10, 2014 as part of the "Visions at Twilight" exhibition. For this piece, Elizabeth and I conducted a paranormal investigation of the old Bay Bridge.

On Tuesday, November 12, 2013, on the 77th anniversary of its opening, crews began dismantling the eastern span of the Bay Bridge between San Francisco and Oakland, California.

In this video piece, we invite viewers to sit and pay homage to a Bay Area cultural icon. As you reflect on your own memories of the bridge, watch the laser grid on the left and take note of any small changes, like a flicker, which paranormal investigators believe is evidence of a lingering presence.
