Mobilia is currently showing their yearly exhibition “The Teapot Redefined” alongside their jewelry exhibition, and I just completed an intricate map teapot for it. The entire surface (including the spout, handle, base and even the removable top) is covered with a continuous map, like a globe, with the buildings highlighted in grey-blue watercolor. The exhibition will start to come down next week, so hurry if you want to see it!

I am pleased to have a piece included in the “Plenty” holiday group show at 13Forest Gallery in Arlington, MA. The exhibition will run from 11/17 – 1/28, with an opening reception on Thursday the 17th from 7-9pm. The piece will be either “Boroughs” or “Slate Cities in Spring” — we’ll have to wait til the opening to know which!

I just completed a large necklace in sterling silver, iolite and singed fabric for Mobilia Gallery‘s exhibition “Objects of Status, Power and Adornment”, which is currently on view.

UPDATE: The necklace has been purchased and is no longer on view, though you can still see the photo here and on Mobilia’s exhibition page. I will be working on another one for the gallery shortly!

I will be participating in a Halloween-themed market (perhaps even in costume!) at the Burren in Davis Square on Saturday, October 29th. New works will include one-of-a-kind woodblock print cards and hand-painted autumn tree pins.

I currently have two stylized map vessels on display at Mobilia Gallery in West Cambridge (358 Huron Ave) as part of their fascinating group exhibition “The Vessel Redefined”. The exhibition is only on through the end of the month, so if you’re in the area I recommend taking a look.

Due to some last-minute shuffling, I have just gotten the chance to show my art this Sunday the 15th at the SoWa Art Walk in the South End. I will be at the 450 Harrison studio complex on the 2nd floor, and will be showing some all-new explorations of invented cartographic designs, as well as older work.

The Somerville Museum is currently showing their annual “Artist’s Choice” exhibit, showcasing work by artists participating in Somerville Open Studios. My map “Sunset Parks” is on display, along with a very wide range of work by other local artists.

Three of my drawings, including the one featured on the banner of this site, will be on display at Bloc 11 in Union Square (11 Bow Street) from March 14th to May 3rd. The exhibition celebrates artists who have volunteered for Somerville Open Studios. There will be an opening reception on March 14th from 6:30-8pm catered by the cafe.

This year Somerville Open Studios will be on the weekend of April 30 – May 1. I will be at the Armory at 191 Highland Avenue, showing original artwork, prints and cards as well as handmade jewelry. Visit somervilleopenstudios.org for more information about this event.

I will be participating in First Friday next month at 450 Harrison Street #223B, the studio space of painter Marion and photographer JB. First Friday is a monthly open studio event in the South End that also includes gallery openings and other events. I will be showing both map drawings and pop-up cities, and it will be a unique opportunity to see the spread of my artwork in one place.

Boston’s Fort Point Artist Community is showing small works by artists affiliated with the area. I have contributed two new maps (Green Acres and Five Towns). The exhibition is at Fort Point’s gallery space “Art at 12″, located at 12 Farnsworth Street in Boston. More information: www.fortpointarts.org/

Two of my pieces will be in an exhibition at the Rubin-Frankel Gallery at Boston University this month. The opening is Thursday, December 2nd from 6-8pm. I am showing a new map (Sunset Parks) and one of the pop-up intersections from the M55 installation.

I am currently showing one of my maps at an exhibition at Arcadia University, outside Philadelphia. The show was just reviewed in the Philadelphia Inquirer — read the article at http://bit.ly/az0rXH

A few years ago, I submitted one of the very first imaginary maps I drew for a book of hand-drawn maps. The very diverse collection of maps is now available from Amazon here: http://amzn.to/a1Rdlg and my map is on page 82.

To go along with the large-scale popups I’m exhibiting in New York right now, I have small pop-up cards for sale on my Etsy store. I am also open to commissions for larger or more specific pieces.

This weekend I’ll be installing some large-scale city popups for an upcoming show at the M55 gallery in Queens. The show’s opening reception is on the 23rd of September, from 6-8pm.
