This broadside was created for a day of demonstrations at MCBA, hosted to coincide with the Mid America Print Council Conference (October 14-16, 2010). An edition of 47 were given away (free of charge…) to visitors. Then a smaller edition of 6 was produced for the artist and select recipients.MORE

[i]Distillation [/i]was exhibited at the Minnesota State Fair Fine Arts Exhibition, 2001.

This exhibition takes inspiration from its setting—a book bindery. For book artists, a bindery is a studio space dedicated to collating loose pieces into a whole. The works in this group show ex…amine sequence—from mathematical series, to evolutionary lineages, to consequential events that delineate before from after. Featured artists employ a diversity of art forms to investigate permutations, sequentiality, and the aesthetics of orderedness.

This broadside is ephemera made to spread the word of my ongoing project titled Open Phenology. A complement to my work as a traditional "fine artist" (maker of paintings, prints, etc.), Open Phenolog…y is my action- and inquiry-based creative practice. Open Phenology is a project dedicated to chronicling, sharing, and celebrating natural phenomena occurring on and around the Walker Art Center's campus. In my work with Open Phenology, I occasionally educate, often facilitate, and always learn. The project's watchword, [b]"WITNESS :: CHANGE :: TOGETHER,"[/b] speaks to my intention to positively transform the way we perceive our environment. By focusing on ephemeral biological phenomena, I hope to encourage a reverent stewardship for nature by re-enchanting our relationship with it.
