Work featured in 2 Bridges Review

I was excited to return from a week of holiday travels to find 2 Bridges Review in my mailbox!  My photographic work, Entering, is featured on page 193.

About The 2 Bridges Review

The celebrated East River Bridges (Two Bridges) – the Brooklyn and the Manhattan, connect downtown Brooklyn with downtown Manhattan. Between these bridges a community of writers and artists has found a home in the former warehouses and factories of New York’s most literary outer borough. Like the artists who make it, the art that lives in these narrow streets goes on its nerve, and we, nerved with newness – and just a bit nervy – want to fill our pages with a distinctive, eclectic assortment of work by both unknown & established writers and artists.

Fall 2012 Semester Round-Up

My final exams are complete!  I just finished my first semester at West Virginia Wesleyan College as an Assistant Professor in the Art Department.  I taught two sections of Drawing I and one section of Painting I.  The painting students had a great time on a field trip to DC, which I led (and drove the 15-passenger van - oy).

Other fun news from this semester: our faculty put together a new department website - you should check it out.  I've also been busy proposing new curriculum for our foundations courses and the Intermedia concentration, and it sounds like things are set to go through as of spring (fingers are crossed).

Looking ahead, I'm excited to be teaching my first Intermedia course at WVWC in the spring (think performance art, installation, and video) as well as some more advanced drawing and painting courses.
Happy Holidays!

This photographic exhibition explores and juxtaposes the idea of humankind's harmonious existence with nature alongside its inescapable tendency to dominate and master its environment, controlling it for its own needs. While Ellen Mueller concentrates on issues of intrusion upon nature by focusing on manifest destiny through the lens of satire with her photography, David Luke conversely reveals the thoughtful connection between humankind and its environment through photographic diptychs which pair food sources with a complimentary water source. Though different in approach, both artists congruently create a discourse for us, highlighting our differing relationship with Nature.
