07 | 04 | 2021 Teresita Fernández: Fire (United States of the Americas)
“Teresita Fernández unearths and exposes hidden histories embedded in landscape. In this striking installation, she renders the continental United States, Alaska, Hawaii, and all the US territories as scorched earth. Through the use of charcoal and hand-drawn smoky shadows, she invokes fire as a symbol of both destruction and regeneration. By questioning perceptions about nation, borders, and land, Fernández invites us to radically reimagine what the future of America means when we become active participants in forging new histories.”
I’m beyond thrilled and honored to have worked on this piece for the Philadelphia Museum of Art. This production was one of the most rewarding, challenging and overall memorable experiences of my life. If you’re in Philly, you’ve absolutely got to come see this in person. If you can’t come out... well, we all worked very hard on this piece and hope you’ll check it out.

Still life brainstorm (2017); I’ve been undergoing another website update, which always takes me forever and makes me nuts. I’m sharing some behind the scenes images as I sort through it all.
These are from a very special studio visit I had with Daniel Herr almost a year ago; special appearance by his partner Lindsay Comstock and her mom’s mug. Both great artists, and incredible friends.
It took me forever to figure this out, but happy to report that I’ve finally set up an online shop via Big Cartel for selling print editions (and other fun photo pieces)!
I’m just getting started so there is only one print edition available right now, but I’m making more pieces big and small, and they are scheduled to arrive in December and 2018. 8/10 prints left of my 24x30″ limited edition Untitled, Alaska 2017! This special print will never be made at this size or on this paper again. Comes with COA, signed and numbered on the back of the print.
Pieces ship within US or Studio Pickup in Greenpoint, Brooklyn. For studio pick up, enter discount code JAVAPICKUP at checkout. Thanks for looking!
