Thompson & Dundy’s Luna Park Rises Again!

It seems like I’ve been working on this for an eternity… I have finally installed the new tower in the Coney Island Museum! Yesterday I sanded it and glued on the remaining bits of moulding. The light was failing as a snapped off some pictures but I’m pleased.

Luna Park’s Electric Tower, 3D Printed

I began work on a newer, more detailed sculpt of Luna Park’s Electric Tower last summer, completing the digital sculpt in September, but its taken a while to get it printed and now its finally assembled. There’s some sanding and a few decorative corbels left to glue on but I hope to install it in the […]

Peach the Cat Likes #3DPrinted Luna Park

Saturday Night Gluing Party

The large Luna Part Electric Tower is being glued! I found I need two parts reprinted but here it is… All 19 layers of it – 118 3D prints plus trimming details. 3 months worth of work. I can hardly wait to see it assembled!

The Sideshow Cast -My 3D Printed Piece for Yale Art Gallery Show

The Yale exhibit opens next week. I’ve been busy 3d printing some of my favorite portraits of circus sideshow performers. For historical context, this piece will be exhibited alongside some classic Edward Kelty photographs. I can’t wait to see the installation.

3D Scanning One of My Art Heroes- Donald Lipski!

My old boss (and one of my favorite artists) Donald Lipski and his wife Terri made it out to the Coney Island Scan-A-Rama 3D Portrait studio yesterday. It was great to scan them and give them a personal tour of my show in the Coney Island Museum!

R.I.P. Carlos

One of the local Coney Island guys I have known since he was a boy died this week. Carlos had a heart attack just short of celebrating his 40th birthday. He was a hustler at one of those crooked game joints you can never win at, but he was a nice guy underneath it all. […]

A Blast from the Past… 1990’s Coney Island

The world is all abuzz about sideshows and freak shows this week with the debut of American Horror Story: Freak Show so I thought I’d follow up by posting some images I just came across from my first season in the Coney Island Sideshow. Recognize anyone?

Scan-A-Rama Sideshow Portraits

I’m due to be in a Coney Island themed show at Yale University galleries this January. They want to place my 3D portraits adjacent to an Edward Kelty sideshow photo, so they want a similar grouping of performers. Maybe something like this would be good? WDYT?
