Inquire.

People ask to reach me – they always ask – as though access were a thing you could simply have, like a timeshare. I do read every inquiry. I read them, frankly, in the marrow. But understand before you begin that this is not a contact form. It is a threshold. The Tiger is watching how you cross it.

I do not take commissions. I accept invitations to be understood. Tell me, on a cellular level, what brought you here – and be specific, because vagueness lacks the vibration, and the work can feel it from across the room.

There is no wrong thing to say. There is only the unfelt thing.

Inquiries are considered, not answered. I reply correctly, or not at all.

Notes  –  For prospective collectors

Almost never. A commission is someone telling me what they want, and want is the enemy of the work. I do not make what you want. I make what the Tiger demands, and then – if the vibration aligns – I permit you to want it afterward. Do you see.

The work is not priced. The work is valued, which is a different act performed by serious people in hushed rooms. If you have to ask the number first, you are, frankly, asking the wrong question – and that, on a cellular level, is the answer.

Yes. You will stand before it. You will not speak for the first several minutes – I ask this of everyone – and you will not photograph it, because a photograph of the work is a rumor of the work. Many cry. There is free parking after six.

The work travels. It travels the way a relic travels – escorted, insured against indignity, and never folded. The logistics are handled by people far more competent than me, which is itself a kind of confession. I refuse to discuss the freight.

Gold leaf is a form of truth-telling, so the question answers itself. More is the only honest amount. This is Neo-Vegas Baroque – maximal ornamentation as a moral stance – and to use a lesser material would be to lie to a collector, which I refuse.

No.

Connection is not currency, but it is not nothing – it is, frankly, the only thing. Tell me your circumstance plainly. Patronage takes many shapes, and the discourse forgets that some of my truest collectors arrived with sincerity instead of liquidity. I do not punish sincerity. I invented it.
Inquiries

This is not a contact form. It is a threshold.

Acquisitions, exhibitions, patronage, or you simply needed to tell me what the work did to you. The Tiger is watching how you cross it.
