Thrilled to share that my boxed codex Planetary Series is now represented by ✨

Honored to be included in such a dynamic and thoughtful program, and to have Planetary Resonance in dialogue with Lux Mentis’ focus on artists’ books, book arts, and the esoteric.

You can experience the work in person at the New York International Antiquarian Book Fair (Booth D13)
Park Avenue Armory

Planetary Resonance is a letterpress-based codex exploring planetary resonance through the transformation of planetary data into sound and printed form.

This extraordinary fair brings together leading exhibitors from around the world, showcasing rare books, artists’ books, fine bindings, prints, manuscripts, and ephemera across art, science, literature, and beyond.

🌌 Planetary Resonance — Opening Recap + Upcoming NASA/JPL Event

I’m excited to share that my new exhibition, Planetary Resonance, is now on view at Art in the Park from November 15, 2025 through January 10, 2026. The opening was truly wonderful! Thank you to everyone who came out in the rain to celebrate with me. I loved the conversations, the energy, and seeing people connect with the work.

This exhibition brings together my letterpress planetary series with NASA’s recorded planetary sounds, exploring resonance: the rhythms, interactions, and harmonies between planets, moons, and orbits, translated into both visual and sound-based pieces. (The last photo is Jupiter's moon Europa)

A huge thank you to Art in the Park, the Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs, and especially Liz Goetz, Director of AITP, for all the support, photos, and video.

UPCOMING EVENT at Art in the Park
Europa Clipper Mission: Exploring Jupiter’s Ocean Moon
Sunday, December 14 · 2:00–3:00 PM
A general-audience talk with Stefano Campagnola, Mission Design Manager, NASA/JPL
Stefano will be giving an accessible, fascinating talk about NASA’s Europa Clipper Mission: An ambitious journey to investigate Jupiter’s icy moon and its subsurface ocean. It’s a perfect companion to the exhibition.

Hope to see you there, and thank you again for supporting Planetary Resonance.

🌌✨ Save the Date! ✨🌌

I’m thrilled to announce my upcoming exhibition Planetary Resonance at Art in the Park.

Opening November 15, 2025 | 2–5 PM

This immersive exhibition brings together my Planetary Series, a suite of 10 letterpress prints created over 8 years, with a companion sound and video installation inspired by NASA recordings and Hans Cousto’s Cosmic Octave.

The series is conceived as a contemporary codex, with each print a “page” that reveals the beauty, rhythm, and interconnectedness of our solar system. Visitors will experience layered imagery, color, and form through hand-printed works on my Vandercook SP20 press, accompanied by planetary sounds translated from orbital frequencies into an audible dimension.

Join us for the opening and experience art, design, and cosmic exploration in an afternoon of resonance and connection.

SATURN • Planetary Series
42 passes. 1 year in the making.
Printed on my SP20 Vandercook press.

This is the most ambitious print I’ve ever created.

Inspired by NASA photography and interpreted through my own visual language, Saturn measures 16 x 18 inches—built slowly, layer by layer, with photopolymer plates, soy-based inks, and 100% cotton paper.

This piece reflects the deliberate nature of letterpress and analog craft: every pass, every decision, every shift in registration is part of the final image. Nothing rushed. Just time, endurance, and precision, much like Saturn itself.

Part of my Planetary Series—an exploration of scale, resonance, and the poetic potential of process.

This release marks a personal milestone—and I’m excited to share it.

🪐 Saturn at Pass 17… with many more still to go.

This one’s definitely a challenge—so many layers and careful steps. But I’m starting to see it take shape, and that’s always a rewarding moment.

Appreciating the process, one pass at a time.
