“FREE RADICLES” - commissioned by FotoVisura as part of Adriana Teresa's “In Love and War” for this year's New York Photo Festival. With the help of Andrew Jordan, several photo booths were constructed and installed on the first two days of the festival. On the third day, I photographed festival viewers, edited, and hung the new series in the gallery. Check out “FREE RADICLES” in the POLAROID section.

Last summer, Using the Impossible Project's "Fade to Black" instant film, Micki Pellerano and I rendered magical intentions for loved ones, the universe, and our own personal trajectories. Rituals were performed in both of our living spaces and around New York City. Combining the appropriate correspondences related to the planetary qualities of each intention, talismans were created in the form of instant film. The title of the series is an unpronounceable string of sigils specifically constructed for the individual talismans.

Left alone, "Fade to Black" turns completely black within twenty-four hours. By documenting each ritual with film, the ephemeral nature of the prayer is extended, and the spell gains strength through its reproduction and the psychic energy of every observer. The complete series records the ten cast spells and the offering of the sigils at the closing of the final ceremony.

A selection from the series appears in the new issue of K48 Magazine. Visit the POLAROID section to view the entire series.
