La Chute D'Icarus, french for The Fall of Icarus,  illustrates the moral of the myth of Daedalus and Icarus.  Daedalus  crafted wings of feathers and wax so he and his son Icarus could escape imprisonment. Daedalus instructed his son not to fly too high or the sun would melt the wax and not too low or the ocean would destroy the wings. During the flight, Icarus  got so cocky in his new wings that he flew straight toward the sun until his wings melted. Capriciousness can kill.
 
 
 
 
 
  

Working Man's Sisyphus is an interpretation of the absurdity of work and was influenced largely by Camus' existential piece, "Sisyphus."  In the original myth, Sisyphus is condemned to eternally push a boulder up a mountain, only to have the rock roll back down before reaching the summit. Working Man's Sisyphus accepts his punishment and pushes the cog.  Ad infinitum. Ad nauseum.
 
 
 
 
 
 

Temple Builder is a tribute to people of color who remain nameless and continue to contribute to the building of modern society. The temple was constructed from several photos taken at the Palais d'Arts in the Presidio section of San Fransisco.
