I’m in a photo exhibition in Chelsea, NYC tomorrow, see photonygalleries.com. I’m showing two large scale photographs through a great SF based gallery called Yoo Projects.
Here is the piece description:
SOFT BURDEN
Soft burden was performed in front of a small live audience on Friday May 13th, 2005 at the Djerassi Artist in Residence Program in Santa Cruz, CA. Marc coated himself with shaving cream; once covered, he removed the shaving cream from himself using a commercial blower.
The photos were taken by Marc using an intervalometer and a tripod.
Archival Digital C-Print: Edition of 5
Dimensions: 32″ x 48″
I made this piece while staying at the ranch of the infamous creator of the birth control pill, the one and only, Carl Djerassi. I think he was secretly thinking to give me some free samples after this piece as a hint not to bring offspring into this world.

And there you have it… one more reason to cover yourself in shaving cream and blow it off with a vacuum in reverse-suck mode.
Don’t you just feel a slight urge to come home one evening looking like the swamp thing stuck in a blizzard?
