I am a New/Mixed Media Sculptor based in New York, who blends formal sculpture with digital technology.
My overall work deals with the relationships we have through and with the Internet examining atoms and bits, who's shared characteristics facilitate a symbiotic relationship between people and computers. I have exhibited throughout in N. America and in Europe.
At 22, I began teaching sculpture at Brown University, moving to Lesley University in 1999. I now teach in Second Life, the on-line world, for SUNY Buffalo and lecture at Pratt and the School of Visual Art, New York City and through out the Northeast.
This is a really exciting project. Definitely touching on one of the emerging issues of our time. I love the use of mediums and the juxtaposition of hard nose, practical construction material (sheetrock) with the more etherial and sometimes mystical element of the digital world. Are we all really just pixels? Whats next - what is beyond? Very cool project. Good luck.
