A hours long experience modeling begins with excited nerves and a lump of shapeless clay that becomes a figure in likeness that tells nothing of the nerves, sore boredom, and fascination with process while the experience itself foreshadows what will last (legacy and metal) and who won’t (flesh, thoughts, bone).

Airportraits with Mo Amer
It was an October Monday in the quiet Edmonton airport where I met Mo. It was a chanced meeting and, like foreordained companions, we passed through TSA, through the sad terminal architecture, through the heavy-handed duty free gift shop- as a pair.
Taking cues from time and place, we chose a corner where the light was right, a place to talk and share. In that place we were seen and we saw each other. The truth is that Mo blessed me by being seen and showing up like he did. Connection, kindness, consideration, and fantastic light is all around us. And Mo, he’s experienced, artistic, deep, and funny. It has been so amazing in the last year and a half to see and watch Mo’s light and depth shine in a world that needs his voice, needs his generosity and humor.
