PANTHER NAZI HIPPIE
“PANTHER NAZI HIPPIE is a game of hand signals and party affiliations. As mimes we stand in two rows facing each other and play ROCK PAPER SCISSORS with one hand in the air. The symbols for ROCK PAPER SCISSORS can be read simultaneously as PANTHER NAZI HIPPIE. There will be no PANTHERS, ROCKS, NAZIS, PAPERS, HIPPIES or SCISSORS among us as we will all be mimes and we will all be in it together.”
Performed with Owen Brightman & Kari Altmann

The formats of these workshops are determined by the teaching student. This student will teach their work as a skill for the attending students to learn and mimic.

Charm City Art Space
Utz vs. Them
Solo Show
This exhibition surveys the American myth of identity and it’s always abundant source of enemies (the Middle and Far East) by using Utz potato chips as a source of inspiration and iconographic imagery. The colors of Utz regular potato chip bags and the colors of the American flag dominate the exhibition space while the repetitious appearance of the Utz Girl creates a jittery, comical, and slightly horrifying atmosphere.
