This video was made by a local documentarian, Steve Coiffi. Steve has worked in Hollywood, most notably on the TV series ALF (which I loved as a boy!) He started making videos of LA performance art in the 90's, and has archived some of the most important moments of that discipline during the time period. Steve is currently creating a series of short documentaries of LA based artists in association with Artillery Magazine. He followed me through three separate shows and interviewed me with my gallerist, John Knuth. My dogs, Edgar and Clara also feature prominently!

Armory Installation
These are pics of my current installation at the Armory in Pasadena, CA. It's in the old Ammunition vault, so it has thick concrete walls, and a heavy steel door hanging open. I tried to make it creepier with middle gray walls, and light bulbs hanging from cords. The room is only about 5-6 feet wide, so photographing the individual groupings of images was difficult, and is why they were all taken at an angle. (They probably would have looked worse if I had a wide enough lens!) It's a shame that I don't have better documentation of that, because Darin Klein designed the hanging arrangement, and it was really spectacular (in the sense that spectacular applies to a dark creepy little room)
