Fine Art Adoption Network

Frequently I post work at the Fine Art Adoption Network. FAAN is an online network, which uses a gift economy to connect artists and potential collectors. All of the artworks on view are available for adoption. This means acquiring an artwork without purchasing it, through an arrangement between the artist and collector. See my work on FAAN.

An Ethos of Industrious Neurosis

by David Brody, ArtCritical.com
David Brody, in a wonderful article, writes "Wiener's exploratory, morph-or-die universe is the reverse of our inertial one: objects never remain at rest."

Materials

Apoxie Sculpt

Apoxie-Sculpt is a self-hardening clay manufactured by Aves Studios.

Polytek - Liquid Mold Rubber

I use Polytek 74-30 for poured rubber molds and Polygel 40 or 50 for brush-on molds.

Aqua-Resin

Aqua-Resin (created by an artist) is an easy to use, opaque, non-toxic composite fabricating resin. It is usually used as a casting material but I use it direct, either brushing it or pouring it over a form.

Pilchuck

All the glass seen in my sculptures was produced at Pilchuck Glass School over several weeks during an artist-in-residency. Pilchuck, generously, asks artists to their campus to explore what glass can do. It was a tremendous and productive experience.
