For the past 10 years, I have devoted most of my creative energy to providing resources and opportunities to Bay Area artists through community building, education, and collaborative art making.
I am a co-founder of the Oakland based Five Ton Crane Arts Group, a founding member of Kinetic Steam Works and one of the Lead Artists on the Raygun Gothic Rocketship project, a site-specific group sculpture project created for the Burning Man event in 2009. This “retro” styled Rocketship is 40 feet tall and weighs 13,500lbs… an interactive and immersive piece inspired by 1940’s science fiction and created in collaboration in David Shulman and Nathaniel Taylor with over 70 Bay Area artists and volunteers.
I am also the Lead Artist/ Designer of the Steampunk Tree House, a site-specific group sculpture project created for the Burning Man event in 2007.
I have a wide-ranging level of experience with the creation of large and small-scale sculpture and custom fabrication with an emphasis on interactive and immersive environments.
