I am excited to announce, although already a week overdue, that I have been included in an exhibition at the Miami Art Museum entitled: Miami Art Museum: The Machine, the Body and the City. It's a great show and even if I were not in it, I would recommend it to any fan of photography.

There isn't too much about it online at this point but there is a write up in the Miami Herald and V Magazine.

I would like to thank guest curator, Andy Grundberg, Peter Boswell Senior Curator at MAM and Charles Cowles for his contributions to the Miami Art Museum.

The exhibition will be up until April 15, 2007 in MAM's Plaza Level Gallery.

LA Light

A few weeks ago, when I was out in LA I couldn't get over the epic light. I felt like everything was photographically apocalyptic because of the mad, mad light. There were cinematic moments all around me especially around the magic hour on my last day when I found this moment unfolding right in front of me.

TRUDI, Los Angeles, CA 90012

My last Day in Los Angeles a few weeks ago I fought LA traffic for nearly 2 hours, Santa Monica to Chinatown. What a mission. After the stopping and starting I arrived to meet up with Matt Chambers an old friend from School in Miami. He has a very tight gallery, TRUDI(click here for current show) See below for rest of the documentation of the space and the other gallery space next door.
