"The Four of Us Are Dying is about a man who can change his face when he studies a picture. As he creates a web of deception and theft, he subsequently destroys the lives of the people around him, and ultimately his own. "

Every year, thousands of high school juniors apply to go to Art All State, but only 1 or 2 from each high school are awarded spots. Those kids come from all over to spend a weekend at the museum, broken up into groups lead by two professional artists, and are challenged to create an entire installation artwork with only 3 surprise materials.
My partner was craftsman Steve Butler - a super cool guy who makes the most gorgeous furniture I've ever seen. Our group was only given : colored wire, white trash bags, and three ring binders.
Do you know what they did?? They made an entire sky serpent winding around our room, and a wire-girl floating away, with tons and tons of white trash bag clouds. Fantastic. Sadly, I had no time to actually take pictures.
And also - when teenagers see my artwork and think I'm cool - it feels like a tiny party inside my brain. I'm cool! Alright!
