Blog Update & short documentary...



It's cold and I'm waiting for a new lens before I do anymore experiments. I expect the lens next week and I need to create a shot for a group show in NYC this April curated by Wardell Milan and Collette Blanchard loosely themed around the book "Giovanni's Room". I like being a part of group shows involving mixed media, film, performance pieces and of course my photography. I don't like being hurled in with other photo group shows. I'm not a photographer and I don't act like a photographer. I would like to just be an artist.

So to kill the time and get out in the sub-zero temps, hugo (my son) and I tried to document the effects of warm water being thrown into -14° air. A great effect that I have shown in the past ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lC6UwSaGcd0 ). But alas, his cup was lopsided and the water spilled to the frozen lake below him. Not the climatic short I was hoping for.

this is too cute :D a bit of an anti-climax with the water, but great to see the town covered in snow, and intriguing to see the contrast between your photographic personas and your real life :D
