    His groundbreaking artistic journey moves from exhibition space to cyberspace. This new body of work uses "digital text/domain names", chosen not for commerce alone but to engage audiences to participate in the responsibilities of a Democracy. Civic engagement with voter-centric call-to-action online destinations are the core elements of his new series in this collection.

     

    The domains are works of linguistic flow and utility designed to elevate the current election dialogue. By creating innovative voter outreach media to reach people deeper, many works are proactive, call-to-action phrases that align with what the artist feels and is concerned about. Words are Internet addresses expressing intuitive values to engage citizens to participate in protecting Democracy. His voice advocates for the voices of others and unlocks new avenues for online interaction. Each domain becomes a portal for positive citizen engagement, providing an online space, to connect, inform, discuss, inspire, and support the American people to channel concerns into constructive action.

     

    With so much at stake in this moment, promoting a meaningful impact in civic engagement is crucial. The goal is to create a deeper connection with citizens with the potential to grow and build community for this election and future campaigns.

     

     

    By expanding traditional e-commerce titles, these domains encourage citizen participation in pertinent societal issues, fostering innovation and opportunity for citizen groups, businesses, investors, organizations, end-users, concerned citizens, and online communities who seek a healthy and vibrant Democracy. This evolution enriches the industry and imbues it with a greater sense of purpose, promoting collaboration and growth among all stakeholders including the American people.

     

     

    It has taken years to develop this out-of-the-box portfolio of digital word objects.

    The artist is seeking partners, patrons, collectors, donors, organizations, and civic foundations to help realize how collective efforts can amplify these messages and drive positive change.
