Finch Lane Show

I've lived in Salt Lake City for seven years now and grown to love it. Salt Lake is a mid-sized city with big dreams. The population is increasingly diverse as are the opportunities. I live on the west side but often find myself working or communicating with people on the east side. Most of us west siders do. Living where I do has made me really consider what the location of a home means. Does it define a person or a family? In many ways it does. It is common for a person to ask me if I feel safe when I tell them where I live. Yes, I do. It's just as safe on my street as it is on yours.
This show, "Salt Lake City: Chain Link and Welcome Mats," is, in a sense, a portrait of Salt Lake City. Though there are no people in the art work, the work is all about people. Salt Lake people.

Gavin's Underground Interview

As part of the Rose Park Artists show at Art Access, I was interviewed by Gavin Sheehan of City Weekly. Gavin had some great questions that really helped me be introspective on what the meaning of the show was all about. Check out the interview here.

Here are a few shots from opening night, and more photos taken by Gavin can be seen here.
