Argus Nest / Closeup of collage-painted surface at Artica. Collaboration with Lezlie Silverstein, 2004.

If these walls could speak, their story be always changing.  I love to use art and language to shape and shift an environment.  A few proven guidlines for me ~ either by invitation or permission, or easy to remove / non-damaging.   I want the work to be a gift ~ well-received or simple to get rid of.  Here are some interior and exterior examples:

I AM LOVED / Continuing installation on Cherokee Street. Inspired by the grafitti that used to be written across the plywood where Foam now is —  “LOVE” scrawled gigantic and sloppy. Shown here photographed with Jason Deem’s  RESTART and the Texas twins who aided installation.

TOPPLE in the Mission / Temporary installation in the Clarion Alley.

Transformateurs / Installation across from Cherokee Cuts and Cherokee and Nebraska.

We Incredibles/  Installation at Cherokee and Pennsylvania.  As described by a rollerskating ten year old: “I think this painting is about when all the adults finally quit their jobs and go outside to play.”

Nuestra Virgen de Traveling Mercies / Collaboration with Mike Pagano in spray tempera at Katie Mac’s for Mexico fundraiser.

Keeper of the Keys : Flood wall practice

Argus Nest / Ongoing project with LezLeider at Artica over two years.  Inspired by Saint Lucia and the mythological Argus monster.

We Come Together Like Opposites Attract /  New-sign installation in SF Potrero meditation on the oneness of villains/victims, interwovenness of dark/light

I Feel It All/  doodle-mural on the 3rd floor of the Flora mansion living quarters

Where there is Love, There is no Question / quickie in my childhood room at my parents’ house

Nothing can Separate Us / chalk doodle with kids at Cultivadores
