The Painted Theatre Project (PTP), his current body of work, which includes The Innumerable Anxieties, and the on-going Creation, Preservation, and Destruction series, reinterprets both painting and the basic rules of dramatic construction, combining installation, painting and theatre, where, in place of thespians, objects, and a stage, it instead features a painted cast, props, and sets.
