This One, That One, 2013
A video consisting of a number of vignettes in which I present and manipulate items from my archive of used books and found objects.
THIS IS AN ARROW, 2009.
Each arrow is made of waterjet-cut ¼” aluminum and enamel paint, and each arrow has a text etched into the front of it. No two arrows have the same text and each text starts with the phrase This is an arrow followed by a qualifying phrase. For example: This is an arrow pointing at a painting, This is an arrow left unpainted, or This is an arrow two feel long. A number of the above images are from a site-speficic installation installed at the Albright Knox Gallery in Buffalo, NY in 2010.
A Portrait of David, 1994.
Life-size photographs of men and boys named David, one of each each from age 1 to age 75. Commissioned by and presented at The Winnipeg Art Gallery
David Then & Now, 2004.
Bus shelter project presented throughout downtown Winnipeg, presented by Plug In ICA. This is the follow up project to A Portrait of David, in which we photographed one David of every age, from age 1 to age 75. For this project, David Then & Now, we located as many of the original Davids as possible and photographed them exactly 10 years later.
