I’ve known Rose and Paul Hurley for the 30 years I’ve worked at Inscription House. It’s been a joy to watch them age gracefully.

with jeff wilson + clara bensen
Artist Nils Westergard painted a mural in the fall of 2013 of a young man (Calvin Smith), from the community of Inscription House. Last spring there was a day when the wind gusted up to 70 miles/hour resulting in several panels of the mural being blown off. With great effort a friend and I repaired the painting. (Thanks Stella!) The same thing happened this spring; however, before being blown off a second time the piece was tagged by the Route 16 Lost Boyz.
I wanted to interact with Nils’ original piece and found a one of my favorite photos of Calvin Smith’s nephew, Owen + attempted to create a dynamic between them where they’re considering their futures. Thanks to Jeff Wilson, Clara Bensen, Daniel Fararra + Nils Aucante for an amazing day!
from time to time i get asked whether i have anything for sale. i do. i now have a page called “schwag!” that gives you an idea of what’s available. the site isn’t set up as a business so if you’re interested in something, email me at: jetsonorama@gmail.com. all monies will be used to bring more art to the rez and work with local artists in the painted desert project.
peace.
on april 25, 2010 this is what i wrote on my old blog:
stop motion video of the installation: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_yypWrtQUQ8
(the significance of this video is that it documents the first time i got a big, multipart piece up solo.)
it won’t be long now…
or will it?
