An attempt to capture the feeling of being halfway between the observer and the observed.

This work consists of a handmade wooden window frame that has been stained with green and black pigments and sealed with acrylic medium.

The words painted in white are a collection of poems written on the walls of buildings in the Trastevere neighborhood.

The window is accompanied by two images and correlating original short stories.

article 1, section 8, clause 3

Seattle 2024

[The Congress shall have Power . . . ] To regulate Commerce with foreign Nations, and among the several States…

The Commerce Clause is the basis for a large portion of the constitutional debates that occur in the Supreme Court of the United States. Justices across time have had great impacts, both positive and negative, on the flow and regulation of commerce through many landmark cases and written opinions reviewing the constitutionality of Congressional legislation.

This work consists of a waving chicken wire frame, vintage postage stamps from my great-great-uncle’s collection, and portraits of Supreme Court Justices.
