You Want to be a Peace Dove!
People are tired of sitting around watching cable and Twittering their friends: they want to do something. People are sick of anti-peace. People want peace.
Come pander to your basest desire by embodying peace or get high off someone else’s. I’ll be taking pictures and posting them over the next month.

About Me
I am an installation artist, poet, and interested in peace. I characterize my projects—which include photography, sculpture/construction, and video in varying combinations, and usually seduce passers-by to engage in public displays of art-making for peace—as Situationalist Lite.

My work over the past few years includes Peace Kiss, For the Love of God, The Making of Abu Grab Barbi and Is that Your Hand Sticking Out of the Cage. My poetry has appeared in College English, Agni and other publications and I’ve read around town at the Black Cat, Miller Cabin, Café Muse, Artomatic and Iota. I will be reading at Artomatic at some point—stay tuned for details!

Things I know I’ll be doing this summer: making more art and co-judging FLIKinteractive, an Art Whino/Art Outlet show of new media art.
