SHOW ANNOUNCEMENT

On Friday, October 23, I'll be exhibiting at "FILTH", along with the disgustingly talented Chris Negrete, and the unspeakably soon-to-be-famous Liz Mares, at the Inferno Nightclub in Madison, Wisconsin.

Our original exhibit, which was supposed to run for two weeks in September, was banned after the venue had second thoughts, but their loss is our gain.

So come to the Inferno on Friday, Oct 23.  Live music by the Apologists, Underculture, and international hardcore industrial star Caustic (how the hell did we get him? because we're awesome).  Burlesque by Foxy Veronica's Peach Pies.  Body painting by Dawn Marie Svanoe.  Maybe a bit of shibari.

Great live music, a full bar, all manner of lewd behavior, and some fantastic pictures.  What more do you want?

----------

Irish photographer/artist currently residing in Madison, Wisconsin.  My artistic work consists mainly of emulsion prints from 120 film negatives, printed on non-traditional photographic surfaces, and tends to have socio-political leanings.  I also do theater and promotional work, which is almost exclusively digital.

Despite how some of my work may appear, I DO NOT do fetish or bondage work (unless I already know you) so don't ask.  Nor am I interested in making people look "pretty" or "hot".  I AM interested in making them look real and beautiful.

I don't normally do headshots, or images outside of a set project I'm working on, but I'm always willing to make exceptions for people whose look interests me.  I also prefer to do what I call "nudes with a purpose" rather than straight nude work, but again, I can always make exceptions.  Feel free to ask.

I also do a bit of serigraphy and painting.  You can check out the website above.

My work tends to be a little dark and sad.  I don't know why.  They just always turn out that way :-)

Wish I could make it for the fun, but apparently I have to construct shelving for Damned this weekend, and finish framing Marilyn Manson's art. Priorities... ugh

I am actually pretty jealous that you get to go to Mazomanie so easily. I enjoy that lil' ol' town! And the spot where Adrian's gallery is, looks like the wild west! Spiffy! haha. That would be a great section to do some outdoor, early morning, street nudes. Those buildings are fantastic!

And I don't think our show will be fantastic, I KNOW it will be!
