Last Saturday, October 26th 2019, was the closing day for the 6 person group show I participated in and helped curate. As you may recall, it was entitled ‘the controlled wild’.

In other news recently Filmmaker and collaborator Emilie Upczak and I received the INSITE Grant from RedLine Contemporary Art Center and the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts. Our project is to create a video installation that will visually explore human industry, expansion, movement, and boundaries, as well as public and private land, wildlife, and wildlife crossing corridors in north Denver.


And finally, I will be in a group show at Now Gallery in Lyons, Colorado in November collaborating with two other artists, Sally King, a wonderfully skilled abstract painter, and Nathan Koral, a very interesting photographer and astronomer, about our experiences and viewpoints while on the Colorado River in Grand Canyon, inspired by a trip we took for three weeks together a year ago, in October 2018.
