Frieze - Shattered
Video

This show was composed of 3 different installations. The first 2 are installations of shaped canvases displayed on a wall. In addition to this, parts were placed on the floor and a 4 minute (looped) video played. The 3rd installation was a frieze, comprised of 40 drawings, surrounding the entire perimeter of the gallery (approx. 55 feet).

This show was presented at Miart Art Fair in Milan, Spazio Xpo in Milan, curated by Fabiola Naldi and La Tavola d'Arte Gallery in Guelph Canada, curated by Ralph Giovanazzo.
