| A trompe l'oeil artist who meticulously recreates an object on painted
wood that give the illusions of books, mostly paperbacks, and record
covers of the 1960s and 1970s era. They refer to books that have
been influential on the artist and "suggest an attitude of ironic
introspection married to a certain esthetic rigor" and suggest a
"mirror of consciousness. Among the authors referred to are
Proust's Remembrance of Things Past, Nabokov's Pale Fire and Speak Memory, and Gertrude Stein's writing on Picasso.
