Happy Deaf Awareness Month!
Did you know that September is #deafawarenessmonth ? Did you know that I am #Deaf & #HardofHearing ? This month I will be sharing a series of #animation works both old and new promoting, advocating & sharing resources to help get you involved & understand what it means to be Deaf and HofH. These posts will also help you get involved in spreading awareness in your workplace, your schools, communities and beyond. Accessibility, inclusion, communication, and language access is everyone’s birthright.

“The Elusive Memory of Memories from a project a

“The Elusive Memory of Memories from a project about how we think we process Memory” 2020, digital Ink Jet print adhered to a brick wall with a temporary adhesive , 1/1 edition.

Context - the digital ink jet print is a photograph of a sculpture. Sculpture origins display the human need to “attempt to make things last forever”, however, this sculpture has melted. Its a reminder. As a Deaf person, I constantly think that I remember the way that certain things used to sound. There is stored memory of those memories. Its a series of fragments and what I choose to tell myself. The image was printed - which is another metaphor of a reproduction to access the past. The past was “cut to its contour” taken from its original digital photograph of the outdated hard-drive mold that was cast in red colorize water. The color red was used to imply visual heat and the passion of emotion, but the nature of temperature applies its earthly laws.. The water was frozen and a cast positive replica was released and composed onto a table. (As I “recall” the capturing process) The cast object was photographed and taken as a metaphor to preserve the ephemerality and the array of lifetime stories that we tell ourselves. We can always rewrite the story..

Another #wip - acrylic & oil on canvas, well 97% of it is... I spent many weeks looking at it and thinking about it. Is it still a #painting once it has been digitally photographed 100 times? Im struggling as you can tell. I have also now placed several digital forms directly onto this digital photograph of a painting, that you may never see in person. I wont be able to stop this you know.. All I can do now is make more paintings that will become digital images that I can use as props to make more digital things. And that is bliss! 😉 #process #art

Here is an old studio shot from 2003. This image "is" the art and functioned as an installation piece for a mid-semester critique with the graduate committee. I was about to complete my #MFA in New Media, Sculpture & Installation from @liupost a semester later. A lot of these installations were visual attempts to show what it “looks” like when one cant hear but is desperately trying to. It was a first attempt at grappling with my disability as a means of advocating and trying to express years of repression.

These were good times!
