In an effort to revive the DIY spirit of the past and reinterprets it for today's digital landscape MIXTAPE

is Collective Art Print Exhibition featuring 126 artists from around the world all gathered in one gallery.

I submitted a Mixtape version of my Finance Wizard from my, well, Wizard series, titles "Fast, fast, fast! Business, business, business!"

An entity morphed by magic, the Finance Wizard is part of a portrait series. His totem is consumption, represented by the plates he collects, stretching across various places and times. Each one’s power is magnified by the former owner; French colonial, American plantation owners, Ronald Reagan’s white house plateware, etc. Each enhances his strength, save for the oldest covering his hamstring, symbolizing the weakness in imperialism and how all riches wither with time.
