I guess you could say that 1992 was sort of a banner year for me. I was studying visual arts at university and in the fall I did a three-month exchange to the University of Northumbria at Newcastle in the UK.
Before I left for England I shared an exhibition with my friend and classmate Bud Fujikawa at the IDA gallery in the Fine Arts building at York University. The lino cuts mounted on boards in this first photo were displayed, as were the inkless embossments I had made from them. I also displayed the oil painting of the stone wrapped and suspended with twine and the sculpture I had painted it from. The two bronzes, a standing eye-splice and a love knot, were cast from the actual rope I had tied them with.
Bud came to England that fall as well and visited with me in Newcastle. We saw Carry On Columbus together at the Warner Brothers cinema.
