http://www.licnyc.com/
New and upcoming.....
so much going on its hard to keep track but just a preview:
working hard on the pieces for the show at The Homefront - opening in two weeks!
upcoming (hopefully) site specific outdoor collage for the Dumbo Arts Festival in September, focusing on the Water Street construction
site specific collage in the List Art Center at Brown's lobby for an upcoming faculty show in either November or January
AND some sort of collage to fill up half of the HUGE space which is La Mama Gallery in the East Village.......I'm thinking it will be Bowery related (its right off the Bowery). The show should be either in January of March-ish......
and interview for the New Yorker photo blog......
and....phew, well, I think thats it for now.

I've also added another cyanotype/collage, and a new section titled "in-absentia" which refers to a collaborative project in its beginning stages between myself and chicago based artist Brett Ian Balogh.

rooftop project listed on curbed.com
on monday, january 29th, curbed.com listed my project! check it out! (might be easier to type in curbed.com and scroll down, but here's the full listing)
http://www.curbed.com/archives/2007/01/29/curbed_buildingspotter_documenting_the_les_tumors.php
Curbed BuildingSpotter: Documenting the LES' Tumors
The only way to a man's heart is through his stomach, but the only way to Curbed's heart is through an art project dedicated to a well-known obsession. Jennifer Williams has lived on the Lower East Side for 16 years, and she's been taking pictures of rooftop additions to buildings for the past three. She's displaying 18 of these photos at the Metropolitan College of New York, including the one above. We admit this is an easy one for you to guess, considering its status as a former Development Du Jour, but hey, it's friggin' Monday morning, 'k?
