Lonely Looser

Looking Through Patient Eyes

I've always hated the way this came out and had intended on reshooting it. I never did. I found it today digging through my hard drive and was glad I held onto it. The model and I were dating but now hate each other though I'm sure neither of us could remember why.

Minúsculo

Tuve un pequeño hermano
cerca de mi
alto, guapo y fuerte
el mundo se dividia
dos direcciones
mientras paseábamos
envidie su luz
en ese momento
y lo sagué di mi vida
observo con rabia
la oscuridad de sus ojos
cuando está a punto de morir
sus labios con los mios
y traqué su ultimo aliento
yo también soy pequeño hermano

1996



This is where I was when I was 23. This is my apartment in Astoria, Queens. My housemate and I stole chemicals from the art school we had both attended and processed film and printed in a storage room in our apartment. These are some of the images I had under my arm when I started my life in 
San Francisco.

The Magic And The Sword/The Memory Palace of Summer

This is the memory palace of my summer courtesy of the young man I spent a good part of it with.  The layers of collage are deep and some collages open to more collage and others contain pockets with removable collage pieces. Some layers are not accessible, there are a few sigils and things written on undersides of the composed paper. It makes me hella sad, in the way thinking about June in November can be really sad.

The Brothers


While visiting a friend this week he handed me a new notebook and asked me to decorate the cover for him. He's a super cute Gemini and I only mention that as a way to explain these compositions. . .

I Was A Lover


This is a self portrait from 2008. 
I made it to cruise for sex, it didn't work so well. 
It was inspired by an  illustration by George Barbier.
