Performance Footage
This is a long video, but I finally finished editing the full footage of the performance I did last month.

To Cleanse
More pictures from the performance…

Burden
I’ve got all of these phrases running through my head about burdens and not being given more than you can handle. I burdened this tree more than it could handle or at least it must be close to the threshold. I was so excited about the formations that I didn’t fully consider the destruction to…

Still Sprinkling
The piece is still in progress. I am currently worried about the tree branches which seem to be really struggling with the weight of the ice. In some places the icicles are getting close enough to the ground that I am hoping they will begin to support the burdened branches. The bush is also quite…

Sprinkling, Freezing and Crashing
I could actually see the sprinkler with the lights from my studio and the metal shop behind it! Things are cracking and groaning under the weight of the ice and the sprinkler is still oscillating like it’s totally normal.

Sprinkling the Snow
I’ve created my own ice storm within the snow storm we’re having. The sprinkler had been oscillating for about an hour an a half when these pictures were taken. It’s dark now, so I will have to wait until morning to see what has happened in the hour and a half afterward. Sisyphus’ plight once…

Double Dutch
This is a mock up for a piece that I have been trying to realize for months. For now the jump ropes are attached to the wall and the mechanism is being turned by a hand held drill. There are a few aesthetic things to figure out here, but I am pretty sure I will…

Deflation Documented
This was the part of the balloon sculptures that I really liked, but when I was making them last year, I never showed this part! I would exhibit the carcass of the deflation process keeping the interesting parts from the viewer. I have since done a 180 and entered into a phase of constant twitching,…
