My work is often site-specific, made in response to the exhibition venue, and I usually work with recycled materials and light to draw attention to environmental issues. This disused methane vent, on North Broadway outside of Chinatown, inspires me to make a piece that plays with scale. It points to life in a petrochemical-dependent world, where the divide between the "haves and haves-not" grows ever wider.

WE ARE HERE / HERE WE ARE
OPENING: MAY 16, 2020
VARIOUS LOCATIONS AROUND LOS ANGELES COUNTY
Durden and Ray presents We Are Here / Here We Are, a Los Angeles County-wide exhibition of nearly 100 artists that explores our innate desire for connectivity through sensation. Due to the constraints of the COVID-19 lockdown, the artists in this exhibition have chosen public spaces to display their work — from Santa Monica to the East Side and from the San Fernando Valley to Long Beach. The location of each piece will be posted on a Google Map that allows the exhibition to be explored virtually or in real life.
We are here.
