OverHeads Tj Aitken

"OverHeads" is a spiritual view of American obsession rendered in sculptural form. Over 20 pieces of Art are illustrated with fine photography. The phenomena they were designed around is discussed in essays done by the artist as they were created. Overheads are assemblage pieces that start with automotive overhead consoles that look like tribal masks. The way these spoke to the artist has been recorded, his musings and meditations that became guidelines for creating the works juxtaposes each piece. The first exhibition of this collection included the essays. Gallery viewers asked for a book. This is it. All the pieces have been auctioned off to raise funds for Chronic Lyme Disease bills. A Portion of the proceeds from this book go to that purpose as well to the Lyme Disease United Coalition LDUC.
