I have been extremely neglectful of this blog. I apologize to anyone who has been trying to follow my work and has been unable to due to a lack of posts. Rest assured that the lack of documentation is no indication of a lack of work. I have recently taken a large batch of portfolio pictures of many of my pieces this year; and to avoid the aforementioned issue, I will be posting these over a longer period of time, instead of all at once. So please stay tuned, there will be a lot of working coming over the next few weeks.
To begin catching you up on my recent activities, I figured I would start with my employment this summer. I worked with a company named Design and Build. I was a content creator for a projection design team that worked with a Denver baller company named the Zikr dance ensemble. Lead by David Taylor, the company focuses it's work on sacred dances and traditions from all around the world. We collaborated on a two hour modern ballet performance that took place at the Parker Arts Center. It was my responsibility to create the content used to project on the floor and backdrop of the theater. It was an amazing experience because it allowed me to work in several different mediums. I worked with photography, paint, ink, graphite, computer graphics, and stop animation. For example in one piece I created a video animation of a drafting and rendering of the Chartres cathedral in France. the cathedral was built around the dancers line by line, and then collapsed. The piece included graphics of computer animations of fractal art, that would travel through intricate mathematical equations in the windows of the cathedral. It was an amazing experience, and I'm thankful to have learned so much from this team.
