Touch Me

Touch Me was the first in a series of kinetic interactive installations that took place in empty storefront windows across from the Ritz-Carlton in Boston. It consisted of forty carved wooden motorized fingers that were mounted to the inside of the window with suction cups. A motion sensor was placed outside over the sidewalk, as pedestrians walked by the fingers would tap on the window. The wires were stitched into the walls and architecture of the building. The concept was to connect the building directly to the people on the street.

Lifelines at MassArt

Lifelines was the inaugural Atrium Sculpture Commission winner for MassArt’s Kennedy Campus Center. Each tube is around twelve feet in height with strands cascading to the floor below for another twelve feet. I worked on campus for approximateley nine months carving each tube. The timelapse video below shows the work split between frames of me actually carving the tube and frames of me not.

Tidal Flowers

SPACER

Tidal Flowers was a commissioned public art piece for Boston’s Fort Point Channel. It consisted of five large flowers made from post-consumer detergent bottles. As the tide filled the channel the flowers closed and sank beneathe the surface. As the tide ebbed the flowers slowly reopened. The largest flower was approximately twenty feet in diameter – Red Tide, the smallest – B.P. flower, was six feet across. At the conclusion of a a four month stretch which included two tropical storms, a noreaster and countless windy days the flowers were removed from the channel and sent back to be recycled. More information can be seen in the Blog section.

Polyethylene Sculptures

spacer

All of these sculptures are carved from salvaged gas pipes that were either found or given to me by gasline workers as cut-offs from completed jobs. I use a flexcut palm carving chisel to carve the lines through the sometimes 3/4″ thick wall of the pipe.
