Thomas Houseago, Walking Figure I (City)
by Travis Jeppesen on October 9, 2012
“I just feel transsexualized by this vermin.” Bend the fecal out of despair. Upend the skyless and then words get drawn out, melody of silence played on brick accordion and then layered fathomly. Ford a finger. Here comes ol’ fingerfoot, (…)
Koji Kamoji’s Terrain
by Travis Jeppesen on July 13, 2012
My space the godness garden of all. Stick to emerge the fragment, pearl drops inside rocked crescence, only to suicide the crags of oceanic wayfare: noblesse beginnings. Curved around shedlife’s tumescent wan long, fall down to perfectly symmetrize the sky’s (…)

WHITE TRASH DUMMIES
by Travis Jeppesen on July 3, 2009
On a recent trip to Paris, I was lucky enough to catch an exhibition of Duane Hanson, whose work I’ve long admired in reproduction but seldom seen in actuality. The sculptures most people and I know best stem from the (…)
Terence Koh @ Peres Projects
by Travis Jeppesen on June 3, 2009
Those of us who have watched Terence Koh’s meteoric rise with grotesque fascination have always wondered how the inevitable obverse process would measure up to the hype spectacle. His current exhibition indicates that the fall will be swift and dismal. (…)
