Shanty Town Houses

Shanty Town Houses

These colorful houses, made from fused plastic bags, are inspired by the little shacks I saw in the Caribbean , the shacks were so colorful and remind me of the resilience of the human spirit despite poor conditions.

These birds were cut from a larger fused piece I had made from recycled plastic bags. They looked like they wanted to join the circus, so I put them under a big top made from a pillow case my dear friend Kim Brayman gave me! They are headed down to Columbia City Gallery in Seattle, WA.

Curating this show of 10 artists has proven to be one of the highlights of my art career thus far! Planning the reception was equally exhilarating. We were honored to have 3 high school student from Roosevelt High for our musical pleasure, Omari, Nan and Alix . The art spoke to those who came and people engaged with one another over lovely food and wine! Once again a reminder of how art does allow us to “commune” with one another and connect . An aspect that too often is missing from our screen watching world. Here are a few highlights from the show! ENJOY!
