About Me |
|
| I am an artist and musician interested in spirituality in art practice. In my sculpture, I work to integrate sight and sound as part of the sculptural experience. I wish to expand my practice beyond the object and engage all the senses that give me the "aesthetic" experience.I have created two musical projects for myself. First, I am one of two guitarists for a band in Chicago called Roots: 101. This is a band whose music is a cross between Bob Marley and the Temptations with a little Zeppelin thown in. We're a great party band and play regularly in Chicago.My second project is a solo project called Primal Intelligence.I'm having lots of fun creating compositions with Garage Band that serve as backing tracks for my guitar. I consider this stuff aural versions of my visual work. These songs, like the sculpture, are grounded in the search to understand our humanity. | |
