I'll be in a group show with 200 artists this July at
Giant Robot NY , curated by Jordin Isip and Rodger Stevens. Each piece of art fits into a 3" x 3" clear dime bag, and will be hung in a grid-like fashion side by side. This is the third show of this sort (Dime Bag 3), and the first that I'll be participating in. With the theme totally open-ended, I had some fun creating on a small scale and was inspired by some key things close to my heart: New York, my family and ice-cream.
I think these work as a series, but I had to chose just one for the show (it has already been submitted). Do you have a favorite?
I'm pleased to report that the Brooklyn Museum Book Fair was a smashing success. This was partly owing to the dynamic craft activities that Sean and I had going on at our booth. Droves of children came by to make self portrait ice cream cones and draw their own family trees. These simple activities coordinated with the themes of our recent books: Ice cream flavors for, I'm Your Peanut Butter Big Brother (Knopf) and family lineage for, Who Will I Be, Lord? (Random House). Check out these awesome kids making art!
