This Spring I had the great pleasure and opportunity to develop work in the ceramics studio of the amazing Betty Woodman. The location overlooking the layered landscape of Tuscany and 30 minutes from Florence was spectacular. I started a new series of plant microphones that I will be working on over the coming year to create a Plant Press Conference that explores the concepts around inter species communication.
Stay tuned!

Joins us on October 13!
40 years after I first painted this mural about the history of Filipino immigration to the Americas with Vicente Clemente and Presco Tabios in 1984, I climbed the 9 story scaffolding again to restore it with the help of artists Mariel Paat, Dev Heyrana and Pablo Ruiz-Arroyo.
This mural tells the history of the contributions of Filipinos in the United States in literature, nursing, medicine, labor organizing, fishing, farming, families, sports, education, fair housing, rights of WWII Veterans, the Lolas WWII Comfort Women fight to acknowledge and end sexual violence, the 1986 torch of the People Power Revolution resistance to authoritarianism, the honoring of heroes and winning of Olympic gold.
Please join us for the dedication on
Sunday, October 13, 2pm
or visit the mural in downtown San Francisco at
000 Lapu Lapu Street.
This mural is part of SOMA Pilipinas Cultural Heritage District
The restoration was sponsored by TODCO
