The metaphor -
to open the show, America’s woman (purity, nature, truth) is killed by the machine of Man(kind), even though there is good in the world and possibilities of positivity. Man (all of us) have to work to rebuild the railroad train (progress) to be released from Purgatory. The aerialist in the show is not the Ghost but the symbol of keeping on track the work that is required, and reminder to not falter halfway thru. The rising Ghost at the end and the release of the ropes signal this redemption, and the swinging lamp is the signal for ‘all clear, go ahead’. She can ascend, as well as Man, due to the completion of the task and the test. The end

"The Shape Of AZ/MEX Commenting On The Shape Of AZ/MEX"
Live art build series, BELOW - I am a Severe ReConstructivist, specializing in a style called “Western Futurism” -
In my series of socio/political statements - “The Shape of Arizona Commenting on the Shape of Arizona”, I create these sculptures in front of an audience, sometimes with musicians, poets, dancers, dj’s, etc. in my intention of conversations about America and it’s migrant policies, past, present, and future; as well as the insults and damages done to Native Peoples’ land and history along the border. I grew up in New Orleans, lived in Colorado for 12 years, and have lived in and experienced the border state of Arizona for 6 years, with the border as a major topic. In my exciting, sometimes bloody, fast paced builds (2-30 mins), I convey a yin/yang of the good/evil acts and intentions of the government, authorities, and isolationists… AND volunteers, humanitarians, and intellectuals’ passions of Arizona, the Peoples, the border, and the river's and culture’s dividing lines. Using vintage found objects all screwed down into found plywood to build up a whole theme, I then finish the show by using an angle grinder to cut off the protruding screws in back, thrilling the audience with fire, and ‘heat’ contemplation. Severe instant art in one of a kind contemporary events and statements. *** Latest art first, for the following live art listings!

"Revo-So-Lutions"

Fast build VIDEO

With the intentions and effects of Fascism embodied in AmeriKKKa 2025, we see and our friends feel the weapons of racism, intimidation, and brutality by brown shirts that have always been this way, and now free to show their full colors, or colorless faces and souls as what they believe to be 'true' patriotism, which is just injustice and power bigotry.
I and many of our friends stand with La Indita Restaurant, Tucson, and their People... a true example of American indigeny, culture, and steadfast nutrition of food and soul... AND we stand with the Statue of Liberty, and our neighbors to the south.

#24 “Hot Wheels and Hot Heels”
50"x28"x3" $1000
Built live at La Linea Gallery, Nogales, AZ Jan 25, 2025
VIDEO
I grew up with Hot Wheels cars and tracks all over my room, and traded pieces with friends. I take these vintage tracks to represent the tracks of migrants and soul of America in the new era of racism, hate, and fascism to be perpetrated immediately… BUT to be held at bay by the best of humanity, love, and America and Mexico; and all who seek the true promise. Build your house by the side of the road, and be a friend to Man, and cobble your Brothers and Sisters.

“The AZ/MEX 3 Hump Heart” - You, me, and us… 46”x32”x4” $500

VIDEO

I built this piece, #23 in the series, at the Yuma Arts Center for my opening reception of my solo show for this entire series Sept. 22, 2023, in 35 minutes with DJ and videographer DJ Thirsty Kitty. Starting with a dining room table top, I built up the circular parts to create a ‘3 hump heart’, giving the traditional heart and extra hump in the middle to denote the ‘you, me, and us’ theme of all inclusive inclusivity of peoples of the border area - America (all colors), Mexico, and Native Americans. The piece is dominated by circles of lives and experiences, with the Devil caged behind a catcher’s mask. Canes, arrows, garden claws as outstretched hands… so many metaphors, and one big intention.

“Ditat Deus, Et Clamat”
(God Enriches and Cries)
30”x30”x3” $500

#22 Built live at Triangle L Art Ranch, Oracle, AZ - outdoor sculpture reception, Sept. 17, 2023 in 30 minutes with one man band Jaimie Miller, HYPNOPAD

VIDEO

For the opening reception of the newest installations at this beautiful sculpture park, once again using fold out rulers to highlight the border, I express and expand on the motto displayed on the State Seal of Arizona - "Ditat Deus" meaning God Enriches, and using piano hammers as tear drops... 'and Cries' about the injustices and inhumanity of cause, effect, and enforcement in policies and treatment of migrants and their plight, including useless hot metal shipping containers and Texan floating balls with serrated saw blades meant to maim and drown. There is the yin/yang of beauty and evil once again, with 50 small metaphors and one big one.

"The Border Is/Is Not As Ellis"
32"x26"x4" $750 25 lb

VIDEO

#20 in the series built live in front of a great crowd at the Members Exhibition reception, Aug. 11, 2023 in 35 minutes, at the Tubac Center Of The Arts, Tubac, AZ, with the eclectic spontaneous art reactionary toneage and percussion of band FoolAloof from Bisbee, AZ.

Starting with a found frame and print and adding the thug target first, then the signs of inclusion/exclusion of residence and migration. The play sand being an easy $5 hardware purchase for Arizonans compared to the burning tundra of decisions and treks to a better life for migrants. Dichotomy in nationalism in the vintage stamps of Nixon, and Steinbeck - who once set out from Monterey on a research vessel to the Sea Of Cortez. Severe building up of model train tracks as Manifest Destiny tracks and scars from multiple border placements, and as always, dedication to the native Peoples who have always straddled. The vintage aluminum 1/2 marks the haves and have nots, and also denotes 'one of two' in disproportionate travesty and bounty. The border now is one of such brutality and fatigue, where Ellis (where my maternal grandmother entered in 1933) was the seemingly more organized, hospitable, and welcoming - and white, but probably not as austere as depicted. Thus the Is/Is Not in the yin-yang of conversation and treatment in this sculpture's topics.

"Add. add, add... Chop, chop, chop... Add, add, add"
38”x35”x4” $2500

VIDEO

#19 piece in this series of live assemblage art performance of AZ/MEX commentary on conditions and Peoples on the border and in life in the desert and America, built July 24, 2023 in 15 minutes on my back patio, with help from my film crew Thirsty Kitty and Moon Paddler. I work out the demons in this build and video, and culminates in the positives of inclusion and love, without taking any shit! I add, add, add the negatives that weigh on the soul of humans and planet in words and pictures, and in part 2, chop, chop, chop away all that is sinister, to reveal in part 3, the beauty of inclusive love and community, especially friends, family, and citizen LGBTQ folks, and beyond. “We are all, all colors and results of the palette, and the brush” in this world and the next.

#17 in the series, built live June 19, 2023, in 33 minutes with videographer/dj Thirsty Kitty. Live Tucson, AZ backyard assemblage art performance build in the hose, under the stream of the hose, with intense hammering down of my neighborhood found discarded water bottle debris, with canteens and found objects nailed to an old gate. I built this representing use/waste/life/love/living with and about water in the Sonoran desert - running downstream to a dry end into the Sea of Cortez, and art, culture, and people going up river from Mexico, Central and South America. As always, Native American representation of cross border culture and family.

“Love It Or Cleave It”
(Turtle Island) ((by honor))
32"x43"x3" $750
Video
#18 in the series, built live July 15, 2023, in 25 minutes at the Hitching Post, Bisbee, AZ, with band Let Alone from Phoenix
Starting out with found plywood, picture frame, vintage stereo cabinet panel, and lawn chair repair vinyl in red, white, and blue as the Union Jack as the country we are most akin to because of, in spite of, and in defiance of… With my classic ‘AZ/MEX shape’ way back in the layers, with east and west coast cutouts loosely nailed, manifesting Manifest Destiny literally, then pulling the sections off and cracking off the states’ divisions and renailing abstractly as background and really pulling back the curtains of ‘border’, i.e. Hidalgo. Then building up starting with the title premise, with crossed cleavers and yin/yang imagery thru-out in our volatile cultural/social/political times, building out with the products of the great era of American manufacturing that actually destroyed the People and the land. But not all, and not all permitted permanently. I reconnect the disparate parts of this great and horrible country through my love of trains, which again, were perceived good and evil. As always I represent the 1st Peoples as we are all standing, and buying, and pilfering stolen land; and the border has only recent historical significance, and more recent abject insult and damage. There’s the sheep as cliche, there’s the homestead, there’s the pencils, there’s the ATF, there’s the ‘twin’… It is not about left and right, it is about what is true… not holy book truths or ‘I did my own research’ truth… but the actual compassion, which can be wholly giving or the sonic separation of (some) of the ages. Turtle Island refers to what the Native Peoples called North America before the settlers came... and for religious context, which seems to be more and more prior-pre-determinated absolute future by certain inhabitants - The Judgement Of Solomon. Look it up.
"Good-Byes To Bad-Byes"
44"x64"x5" 50 lbs

#15 in this series of “The Shape Of AZ/MEX Commenting On The Shape Of AZ/Mex”. This piece was built live in 30 mins with the band The Bird Lords at the Hitching Post in Bisbee, AZ on Feb 18, 2023, an in the moment mayhem build of epic proportions! The title refers to the trauma and heartbreak of migrating north across the borders and all the separations endured, temporary and/or permanent, and the fortitude to get to a point of NOT having to say good-bye any more to loved ones or culture. I wanted to make my own art crucifix, and built this up with larger pieces and metaphors like a carved Jesus head, fish tray, shotgun blasted 'warning' sign and a 'no hunting' sign. A corn husker finger tool transposed with an 'I.C.E.' pick, Mexican flag rubber hammer, rat traps, and fold out ruler arrows pointing South but are also agaves. The feet are vintage tin AZ and Mex souvenir ashtrays. And always the recognition of the 1st Peoples who have occupied and straddled both sides of the border, with a sterling bell of a warrior and cornucopia. the sub title is "c.c.c." - chunky chollo crucifix

“Personal Belongings”
33”x27”x3” SOLD

#16 in the series. This piece was built live in one hour at the Sculpture Tucson office ranch house, Tucson, AZ Feb 22, 2023. Performing with Loren Dircks and his band Gila Bend, and variation of his other - The Classless Chaps.

Starting with a property bag and my 2022 calendar from Hotel Congress, I wanted to create a expanding headdress of found materials, all screwed and nailed in, expanding on the expanding aspects of being cross border and cross cultural. Not just possessions, but feel and need of sense of place, and that it’s not always black and white… or brown and white. I have moved and changed many times in my life, and consider myself a citizen and artist of the whole world, commenting in this series on where I am now. And she is everywhere now as well, but focused on the Mexican/American placement in this sculpture. As usual, many small metaphors, one big one, and many parts and messages to decipher.

$1000

#14 in the series - Built live at The Hitching Post, Bisbee, AZ, during 1st Festival, with Fool Aloof band, Jan. 1, 2023, in 30 mins

Starting with a blank board and frame, I added foldout rulers for the ‘Shape Of AZ/MEX Commenting On The Shape Of AZ/MEX’ with the border. I nailed and built up multiple rubber cord protectors from steam irons used in previous art, creating the ‘string’ effect of a ristra bunch, as the black and blue bruises of migrant travels, troubles, and tribulations as well as the bruised Americans constantly adjusting to years of muddy immigration practices, foreign policies, and muddy waters… thus the representative canteen and rosary. As always in this series, there is the representation and metaphor of across borderlands of the 1st Peoples, always in flux, and seldom considered.
