A couple of my pieces will hang in a group show entitled "Elevator to the Moon: Retro-Future Visions of Space" that will be on display at
Artisphere, April 4 to June 9, 2012. The exhibition is part of
Countdown to Yuri's Night, the fifth annual celebration in DC of the first human spaceflight.

Empty gallery after my MFA thesis exhibition.
|
The last two months since my MFA thesis exhibition have been chaotic because I moved into a new apartment closer to DC. I had thought that moving out of my old apartment would make me sad, instead, it felt like an opportunity to begin again. My experience of de-installing my thesis show was similar. The collection of work on display represented two and a half years of labor. I thought that seeing the bare gallery after I had removed my artwork would leave me with a feeling of emptiness. Instead I left feeling confident that I could continue to create new work and put together another show.
For now, I am focusing my efforts on completing the written component of my MFA thesis that will document the meandering process of thought I traveled to arrive at my exhibition.
Both opportunities (empty gallery and new apt.) are blank slates...that's and exciting proposition to do it again bigger and better.
