Ah the artist's website C.V... a desolate and harrowing place. If you made it here , welcome, you will notice that I have had some exhibiting experience , I have been a finalist in a handful or prizes and yes I have the much maligned liberal arts Bonafede's. Thank you for visiting.
My artmaking practice is balanced with a career in secondary education, teaching visual arts. My current art practice explores how memorabilia and ephemera allow us to romanticise the unsavory, I have taken inspiration from the Soviet space dog program ,in which stray canines were used as guinea-pig astronauts. My work intentionally juxtaposed melancholy pups with campy, pulp, sci-fi landscapes and iconography to create an imagined future in which canines are our sole space pioneers.
