Code Red
Nikky Draven and I painted “Code Red” together in my studio, taking turns figuring out with paint and images of guns how to represent the shooting at the Margery Stoneman Douglas high school in Florida. The words of the students under siege come alive: “Hide” “He’s Coming” “Don’t Hang Up”. “Call Mommy”.
This 4 X 8 foot work on corrugated cardboard was part of the intergenerational show “Dimensions” at the Joan Mitchell Foundation Gallery in NYC emphasizing how artists of different ages mentor each other.
