Working with Re-purposed Materials

As an experimentalist, I find great pleasure using re-purposed materials. It is a challenge to make compositions and "tricking the eye". Nothing more exciting than making people believe that your materials look like other ones.Examples of community participation using re-purposed materials are the pictures shown below.Pieces shown in the exhibit P.E.A.C.E. Bringing Peace: Beautifying Our Community, at the Link Gallery, Syracuse University, NYUnited and Togetherness are part of the current series Pipe Organs.
