White Out

"White Out, production still #1"
LUMEN 2011 benefit print, edition of 25
archival inkjet print
5.5 x 10 inches

The 2nd LUMEN Festival, a cutting-edge video / performance / sound art / projection festival on Staten Island’s industrial waterfront, will be held on June 25, 2011.

This year's not-to-be-missed event will take place at the historic Lighthouse Museum site immediately adjacent to the Staten Island ferry terminal.

The Council on the Arts and Humanities for Staten Island (COAHSI) is currently fundraising to help cover costs for this FREE event, and I, along with artists Steven Lapcevic and Paul Moakley, have donated benefit prints to encourage pledges. For just $175, you will receive the print from the artist of your choice, and for $500 you will receive all three.

**DONATE TODAY** via Indie GoGo - it's for a really great event!

White Out, pictured above, is a production still from my new video which was funded in part by a 2011 DCA Premier Grant from the Council on the Arts & Humanities for Staten Island, with public funding from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs. White Out will have its premiere at LUMEN.
