Currently my "Glass Bondage Series" is on display at 908A North Third in Philadelphia. This series represents the metaphor for the psychology of relationships. Bondage is an anomoly. It represents strength, security and support, but also restraint, limitation and co-dependence. Bondage in the form of human relationships is a self imposed state of being. In discovering the delicate balance between the tie that binds and the tie that restrains, I've incorporated that irony into my art. The seemingly powerful connections are constructed of glass-reminding the viewer of the frail nature of relationships.

My Interests

Moons, Stars, Fortune Cockies, GLASS BLOWING, FLAMEWORKING, Fire, starting fires, not burning my hands anymore, Bullhorns, Copin' Squats in Public when it's totally nessessary, Dream Analysis, Astral Projection, Tarot, Positive Manifestation, People Watching, Loud Music, Critical Mass, Velcro, Snowboarding, Art in more ways than one, Hyperactivity, Sanity, Profanity, Astrology, Psychology, Screaming into My Pillow and getting Excited for no Reason. I Am

Which tarot card are you?
In a Past Life...
You Were: A Friendly Astrologer.Where You Lived: West Africa.How You Died: Natural causes. Who Were You In a Past Life?

I'd like to meet:

Before this, let me just note that I currently do not open random friend requests due to the slut spam mail out there. Fuck your sneaky little Myspace junk tricks.... But in all honesty, if your an awesome GLASS BLOWER, an ARTIST of any kind, gallery owner, a natural MYSTICS with knowledge of the second self,and if you're a person who will do something with their life to better themselves as a decent individual, then you're cool with me. No fake people please (you bunk-ass profiles!!), and no shallow fools with inability to open their minds to other possibilities. Do you understand the psychological root of multiple personalities combined with astronomy, astrology, and sociology?
Do you sneak out at night to look at the moon? I'm talking to you over there in the corner dancing!
How about a sugar soul with self control who can give me some pointers, and point me in the direction of astral projection!
Hey Ouija, what's shackin? Do you do voodoo, but not project negativity onto others? I easily fall in love with people who cook for me.
Everyone else will appear when we need eachother. Meet me in the city, most likely the EV:
