On today's zeitgeist: becoming a celebrity these days is like "pulling a rabbit out of a hat"

Tuning Fork Earrings & Pendant

In between each "tuning fork" are tasty morsels of sound, each set with Indica Tourmaline. The earrings are to be worn over the axis of the ear

This chain is a commissioned piece made from 4 different sizes of links, each cast from a model that contained segments of bass guitar strings

Records

An example of a reoccurring theme in my work, that of symbols, changes in perspective and meaning. These designs were spray painted on records and can be lined up, spun and displayed in a variety of ways

Twist

This is a project that began with a free-hand drawing of mine in marker. I later scanned it, projected the image onto four canvases, and painted them using black and white acrylic. I like to manipulate them for different effect

Ritual, 1/2

This was an exercise in ritual. I carved a square in linoleum everyday for 50 days immediately after meditating

Ritual, 2/2

The result was a very large stamp, that I later printed 50 times, on 50 large pieces of paper

Box of Kittens, 2008

Commissioned by Toronto's infamous Box of Kittens parties. I made hundreds of boxes out of acetate, each encapsulating an LED. They were strewn all over the venue like tea lights. FYI- when placed on a speaker, they bounce!

Box of Kittens, March 2009

15 paper lanterns with LEDs. They swayed to the music thanks to the many fans installed in the venue. See YouTube clip below
