Cannibals – sustainable art
Pammela Springfield asks that all her gallery artists be a gas tank away from the door and show only work created in the past year. In this way the art at Cannibals is always local and fresh.
The art is also “recycled” in the most expansive definition of the term. Art re-purposed from materials that were headed for the landfill, but also recycled images that our conscious minds would like to forget. Pammela eloquently reminds us of why we need these unsettling images and the artists who make them.

Richmond Elementary Japanese Immersion School
Richmond Elementary Japanese Immersion School is an award-winning school in Portland, Oregon. It is also where my own kids spend most of their week. My five-year-old sings Japanese songs. My eight-year-old now reads and writes in the English alphabet, hirigana, katakana and is starting to learn kanji. We are really lucky.
This is a video I made to promote our school.
Parents for Paid Leave
This is a video I made for Parents for Paid Leave. It is part of a campaign to pass upcoming legislation that would give Oregon’s families six weeks of paid leave to care for their newborn children.
