Dentata

Dentata is a sculpture that combines wire, real fake teeth, and glue to create an unsettling, but somehow cute piece of art.

Sanctuary

Sanctuary, created in 2015, is comprised of 30, 7ft panels of fabric abstractly hung. In this iteration, it was requested to be incorporate another of Frank's pieces, "Don't Let Me Explode." The two together were shown during the beginning of 2016 at the gallery at CCBC Catonsville.

Low Noise

When I was twelve I started my first band. I was in a punk band and it was called Lost Image. And it was terrible. But it was fun. The four of us had a good time, and while we had a good time we would record the practices we did on a Sony tape recorder in the humid garage we practiced in. Somehow I became the holder of the band memories and had all the tapes. No one wanted them. Eventually, as I had other bands, they went from their place in my tape collection to hidden away in storage. But I still have them.

Two of the members have passed away.

Baltimore Trash Talk - Intstallations and Public Work

These installations and artworks have served to raise awareness of how much we litter, of our consumption of one-use/plastic items and our need for legislation and education regarding these issues. 

​Two of the Rivers of Recycling were advertised by myself and executed with the help of family, friends and volunteers. The data collected was used to testify in front of policy makers Annapolis in support of Bottle Deposit Legislation (take your bottle back to a store, get 5 cents back per bottle). 

What is Puppetry? Learning and Teaching about Storytelling, Creativity, and the Life of Objects

As I spread the gospel of puppetry and objects, I often teach children and adults the power using objects to tell stories, and how to create with your own two hands. As art is less and less a part of children's lives, I feel they lose the confidence that comes from having an idea, and then making it into a real thing they can touch. I work on letting them play and discover their own imagination, work through possible failure with imaginative problem solving, and following their own weird instincts to create whatever their heart desires. 

Transylvania Gallery Two

In May 2015 I was an INSIDE ZONE resident artist in Borsec, Romania, a town at the base of the Carpathian mountainous. Throughout my life I had heard stories about my mysterious ancestral land of Transylvania.

During my urban exploration of the town’s crumbling villas, hospital and surrounding area, I took photographs. When I returned home I assembled frames from a few objects I collected there in addition to other materials from my studio. I created the odd sized structures first and then placed the archival pigment photographs inside the frames.

Aquatica Gallery Two

AQUATICA TWO is the continuation of my series of found object wall assemblages based on oceanic life.
Included is my lastest outdoor freestanding sculpture, "On The Edge", dealing with the plight of horseshoe crabs used for scientific purposes.
The environmental impact in the oceans from global warming and human trash motivates me to create fish imagery.
