I am happy to share some video documentation of “Flight Pattern” and “Reverie” that was recorded by Al Wong.  This video is 3:24 minutes in length and provides a very good sense of my creative process which is fundamentally iterative as I respond back and forth to the materials.  “Flight Pattern” is the collage installation with cut paper, hair netting and thread which is the piece I am actively working on in this video.  “Reverie” is the vegetable netting work in reds and greens on the wall behind me.

I also wanted to share an additional 1:34 minute video from Al Wong of me at my sewing machine assembling the vegetable netting that comprises of the “Reverie” wall installation.  There are a couple of things that you might notice in this video;  the first is the sound of jazz master Paul Desmond in the background. I love jazz and it is a continual source of inspiration in my work.  The second of course is the powerful grinding sound of the sewing machine itself, a 1968 Singer workhorse, Fashion Mate model 237 made of solid cast iron.  It is probably one of my most treasured tools as an artist.

In front of my sewing machine and at my work table; my all time favorite place to be!
