Behind the Curtain She Falls AMONG the fun aspects of this new body of work is the opportunity to very easily change the colors of the blended abstract image in Photoshop. Of course, I have my favorite combination of two or three colors (more than 3 can get a bit busy and muddy), such as the blue and red version above . . but if a different color combination resonates more with a viewer, the image is easy to redact. ... This particular model LOVES the color red more specifically: fire engine red so I made the curtain red that is wrapped around her torso (like a dress); in the original abstract photo (also seen above), the curtain/dress is a wadded up piece of blue painter’s tape attached to some kind of hose or tubing.

Different color variations of Behind the Curtain She Falls @ Mission District, San Francisco

Original abstract photo used for Behind the Curtain She Falls

Mind is a Razor Blade I used to resist naming my pieces of art, not wanting to influence viewers’ visual conversation. However, for this body of work, which has such a personal backstory, I have made a concerted effort to name each individual piece of art, based not-so-loosely on my childhood hallucinatory experiences of uncontrollably floating and falling past blurs of colors and textures .. plus input received from the the individual models with whom I... have had the pleasure of creatively collaborating, be it music that resonated with us both during the shoot, or bits and pieces gleaned from their personal stories, etc. I have worked with professional models, friends, friends of friends, and even strangers I had just met . . who are now friends. One of my main goals with this body of work has been to create intimate figure art using a camera (because I am a photographer / mixed media artist) in a way that can be hung on somebody’s wall . . or safely shared on social media. DM me for a commission, and let’s make some extraordinary art! See more

For the past year+ I’ve been consistently working behind the scenes developing a body of personal creative work in a completely different direction, waiting for the pieces to slowly come together enough to publish it on social media. At first glance, it is extremely different than anything else I’ve produced before as a photographer . . in fact, I’ve been identifying myself as a mixed media artist who uses a camera + computer + image transfers. This new series, which I ca...ll abstracted figures, is a combination of my current figure photography blended with my old and new abstract photography. It was inspired by the Time theme of the group show of my art studio @arcgallerysf , where I didn’t play with incorporating literal references to time (clocks, hours and minutes, etc), but rather went back to a period of time in my childhood when I frequently suffered from tonsillitis . . and with it a high fever, looping hallucinations of falling, and the vivid and terrifyingly vertiginous sensation of uncontrollably spinning weightlessly past blurs of colors and textures, desperately wanting the experience to stop. Anyway . . recently, although the series will certainly continue to develop and take shape, the aspects of this series have started to come together enough that I feel comfortable sharing it. This particular piece is called This Love, Fist, Scar, Break See more
