Hey Wooster, here is a wheat paste project I did this summer in San Diego, California. The repression of mass peaceful protests in countries like Egypt, Libya, Bahrain, and Syria has exposed some monsters. As I write to you, news lines read “rebels sweep into Tripoli as Gaddafi forces crumble.” I felt like the struggles for justice and freedom in the middle east needed to be acknowledged. The Gaddafi, Mubarak, Assad, Saleh, and Hamad bin Isa, governments are truly monstrous.

Best Regards,
-Scott “Lie-fe”

I’m swimming in notions about how to create visual effects, whereas I should be advancing messages. The kit is there, now for more of a narrative.

On the one hand the chandeliers are happy being themselves: it’s the …

Vertical seems to be an ephemeral property. A sandy edge molded by ice and waves will soon crumble. The jaggedness of the Great Teton Mountains will be replaced by rounded shapes demonstrated by the juxtaposed older Gros Ventre Mountains.
