Stripes

This body of work transforms five utilitarian rollgates into vibrant street-level canvases that bring daily encounters with color and pattern to the residents of Long Island City. Each gate becomes a moment of unexpected beauty in the functional infrastructure of city streets. Through horizontal striping, these works create art that greets pedestrians as part of their everyday experience.

Warm gradient stripes inspired by craft beer's rich spectrum—from pale golden wheat ales to deep mahogany stouts—creates art that honors the brewing tradition at the Rockaway Brewing Company happening at this site.

 

COLORBLIND (Love LIC)

Colorblind (Love LIC) two panel rollgate mural for PLAXALL in Long Island City, NY. Inspired by the Ishihara test for color perception, the dots combine to create a heart on one panel, and “LIC” on the other.

Circle Trinity

For Circle Trinity, I was inspired by St Mary church across the street and the circles that make up the Tuk Tuk logo. The three arrows represent the holy trinity.
