New works

A few shots of a wheatpaste and four toys/sculptures I'm painting on, to be put into a small show in the near future.

The work makes use of runes, alchemical symbols, numerology and acrostics, as well as imagery from the Bosch and Durer catalogs. I'm trying to draw parallels between punk imagery and medieval art, their use use black and white, woodcut and themes of war, elitism, government/church and state, and the way that information is hidden in both of these contrasting languages.

Black ink, black paint.

Mass Hypnosis Vid

Philippe has edited together a video of the installed art, with lights, from the Mass Hypnosis show.

Check it out, it's pretty rad, and if you missed the show, it's as close as you can get to having been there or seeing what this kind of art looks like under that lighting system.

PULSE DEMON

Here's a terribly low-res photo of the wallpaper I will be installing...one sheet doesn't really do it justice. There will be a column of this image, oscillating in two different directions simultaneously.

Also, I will play some drone, minimal techno and some pitch shifted east coast and southern rap.

Back to life

I'm in a radical print show, put on by Philippe Blanchard as part of Open Studio's PRINTOPOLIS symposium.

This flyer says more than I ever could.
Basically, a sequenced lighting system is projected in different patterns over wallpapers printed in colours which respond to the lights. I will DJ slow music.

Yes.

show

A flyer I made for a hardcore show, put on by http://noapathytoronto.blogspot.com/
on August 14. The middle section is based on a stamp or other image design by Escher.

Patches

Some of the band patches I have printed, all logos redrawn by hand. This photo doesn't do justice to the size of that pile.

FREE DRAWINGS 7

I will be in the seventh issue of Jesjit Gill's long-running publication Free Drawings. It might be the last issue.

This is my drawing, done with hatching in pens, of myself and my cousin's grandmother, with a squirrel over our heads. Just in case that wasn't clear.

Sorry for the grainy scan.
