"TANKS FOR NOTHING"

My art is part of a group show that opens this Friday, February 7 at the Sweatshop Gallery in Benson, Nebraska. The show is titled  “Brass Tax –A Screen Print Show” and is curated by the amazing Pat Oakes.

The show features screenprinted works on alternative media from 15 different artists. Doors open at 7:00pm and will feature –DJ Thomas Flaherty from 9-12pm in the back of the gallery. If you are in Benson for this first Friday of February, please come by and see the new work of Adam Findley, Eric Nyffeler, Michael Neelsun, Ben Pavlicek, Matt Carlson, Ben McQuillan, and many more great local artists.

Here is a picture of my silkscreen piece on brushed metal called “Tanks For Nothing”. The piece was inspired from the Tiananmen Square Protests of 1989. I was senior in high school at the time of the incident and I still remember how powerful the image of the one student against a row of tanks looked. It was haunting and inspiring to me.
