Personal Structures at The Venice Biennale
I’m very excited to announce that I have been invited to participate in PERSONAL STRUCTURES organized by the GAA Foundation and hosted by the European Cultural Centre in Venice Italy during the Venice Biennale, 2019.
This small work was chosen:
I want to express my thanks to all involved, especially to artists Jo Ellen Burke and Terry Meyer who took it upon themselves to organize this Go Fund Me page on my behalf. Thank you all who have contributed!
Thank you to Volume One for this writeup.
And a special thank you to Al Ross and Wisconsin Public Radio for this interview.
More about this soon…
Flowers
In progress. I’ll now focus on completing the building.
Sinking and Burning the Boat
Very excited to be at this point in the painting. I prepped & “sunk” the boat last night. A beautiful day at 46°F to spend under the sky. I have my work cut out for me now.
Video can bee seen at my Instagram.
Boat Hull Taking Shape
Things are taking shape. Of course, finishing the boat is just the beginning. Once completed I’ll then ruin it, set it in the painting, and then begin salvaging/repairing it.
The Boat
Today I’m getting a start on weathering the boat keel for the current painting. Next I’ll prep/mount the cladding. Eventually I’ll submerge the whole thing in water, freeze it, put it in the oven & start it on fire (among other things) before placing it in the painting.
