Flashback to 2007. The Sumter piece (2007-2008) is made of wooden coffee stir sticks woven in place and held by tension.
12 years on and I’m still committed to coming most anywhere I’m invited to make work. I’m like an installation vampire that way. You have to invite me in to see the magic. I’m circling around to scheduling more travel gigs again as my oldest kid starts first grade next year. No epic 20 city tours in the works but no reasonable offers refused. See you on the road in 2020! I hope. Or I’ll just see you online.
