Behind the Lens
The meeting of two personalities is like the contact of two chemical substances: if there is any reaction, both are transformed.
-Carl Jung
The projects listed below, are part of an
ongoing exploration of the connection
between my photographs and my paintings.

daily self portraits and (not so) random thoughts
9/1/08-8/31/09
30 years ago, my division III (senior thesis) exhibition was partially
comprised of a series of books contining daily self portraits each accompanied by a journal entry.
30 years later, on September 1, 2008, I started participating in a
flickr group project: 365 days. This blog is an offshoot of that project.

daily bread; from the studio
9/1/09 -
As I wanted to continue with a 365 day project without taking self portraits, I felt I needed nother
subject matter with which I was intimately connected; so if not "me", then my studio. For a while this blog served as the front page of this
site, but at a certain point I felt that the day-to-day details of my process did not seem well suited as an introduction to my work as a whole

a few of the other places where i post
|
| fotola |
fotola is an intimate photo sharing site where i have kept two parallel daily journals since 2004
be forewarned: fotolas can be a bit slow to load
|
|
|
| |
i share this fotola with brazilian artist Fernando Lopes,
we alternate posting images in response to the one before, this project has been ongoing since 2005, when it started on fotolog
|
|
|
| flickr |
though i am using it more, i still have problems with viewing images on flickr; i don't find the format to be
very "poetic" and i don't feel as if i get the full flavor of images that i see there.
that being said,
it has turned into the industry standard for fotosharing and so i play along;
this flickr is my more documentary type
images, mostly about my new life in brooklyn

welcome to my own little piece of heaven is used in conjunction with a project i am
doing on twitter
it was formally known as welcome to my own private hell; a project i began to help me
pack up my studio after 25 years and move it to brooklyn

i share this flickr with brazilian artist Fernando Lopes, a shoot off of re:
but these images are posted real time via mobile phone. we don't necessarily see the other's images before we post
but we do text tags to each other to stay connected |
|
|
| tumblr |
i have found tumblr to be a great blogging tool for presenting series of images.
the first 2 projects are each in response to another artist's work on the web. @joseph_kosuth is an answer to kosuth's
1stfans twitter feed (march 2009) and @DAVID_LYNCH consists of images i post in reaction to lynch's "Thought of the Day"
posted on his twitter. the third project: random tweets documents my participation in the
@platea project: co-modify |
|
|
there are more floating around that i'll add at some point
