Description
This large scale artwork is comprised of many interlocking panels, each measuring 4' x 8', represents the local environment, exotic ports of call, and daily operations at the port. A true assemblage of photographic collage with found objects which were savaged by the artist around the Port, and abstracted from their original sources, the imageries blend together in an atmosphere of interdependence. Development must coexist with nature if our world is to remain interesting to those who inhabit it. Viewing these murals should provide a glimpse of the heroic and beautiful surroundings of the Port Everglades. This artwork is located at Terminal 25 of Port Everglades. Viewing is by appointment only.

 
Artist Statement
'Dockside' is an active and aggressive portrayal of the epic size and scale of operations at the Port. It provides a behind the scenes look at what makes a cruise vacation possible."
