I create art works and projects that challenge observers and participants to understand the impacts of human consumption and development on natural eco systems and environments.
By creating this type of art I hope I can help connect people with nature, and empower them to become active in trying to help make positive environmental choices.

Homeless Polar Bear


April 22 2009 Earth Day in Boston. These are a couple of photos of the homeless polar bear performance. I went to town with My GAL (Green Artist League) buddies to bring attention to the plight of the polar bear and the melting ice caps due to global warning. I washed car windows  asked people for ice, and pushed a shopping cart around, completed with a big salmon in the seat. This was a very affective performance, we engaged 100's of people walking through the streets of Boston.

Air Your Dirty Laundry


This installation and performance by GAL (Green Artist League) invites participants to write their "ec0-confession" on used clothing, and hang it on the laundry line. As people read the confessions they recognize their own short falls. Through laughter and conversation many solutions are shared. "Air your dirty Laundry" helps people to face their own habits of waste and consumption, and empowers them to make positive changes.
