Urban art- Public Art

client comments:

Thank you so much again for all of your help and beautiful printing! I have been hearing a lot of great comments. 
I enjoyed working with you - thank you. 

... I am happy to let you know my first public art in New York is now opened and on view. I received commission from New York City's Downtown Alliance to produce a 245 foot-long photograph printed on transparent mesh to install at Lower Manhattan Cultural Council's (LMCC) LentSpace in Tribeca.
half awake, half asleep presents layers of abstracted, ephemeral images of blossoms, rays of light, and leaves that interact with the surrounding natural elements of the park, playing off the subtle shifts in the natural light throughout the day - it is an experiential piece.
Installation will be on view until Summer 2012 or maybe longer. If you are in New York or planning to visit, please stop by and enjoy LentSpace park.---contact us for artist info.
