Born 1980 in Neenah, Wisconsin. Raised in Sweden and upstate NY. have been living out of a suitcase since the age of 18. I moved from Brooklyn to Kansas City over a year ago to work on my latest project which has recently been completed and is now being shown around....I look forward to showing this sculpture everywhere soon. I contend with creations meant for mass consumption and one of a kind creations, so I got a job at my local SuperTarget store to build their displays every day for every product they sell. I love art yet I needed to study the machine of a place like Target and see all the different products that are created for the masses and how everything functions at a place like that. As for fine art, I believe the human body is the greatest creation and that life is the greatest work of art.

Designing one of a kind creations and wanting them to be more accessible I began making clothes and created a company to house them under. PENNY clothing uses the most neglected and taken for granted piece of US currency and recycles it into a marketing campaign for the art that drapes what I believe to be the greatest creation; the human body. There's a "fashion runway" that accompanies this project which is shown here as well called the PENNY skategarden.

The latest work I've made is a sculpture of the human body, but the point of the sculpture is to celebrate human movement as well as human form. I created a company to house this sculpture as well so it has a chance to get into the hands of those who might not ever be enticed to step foot in a place where there are art sculptures. The name of the company is LEGITtm action figures LLC. Turning an adjective into a noun, but also making a statement as to what exactly this sculpture is capable of doing. Now you see why I wanted to study for a bit at Target university.

I want the highest and best for everyone, and everyone who creates. I hope you enjoy some of my naive pop art (a bit of a clash) and some of the sculptures and other things. Take care - Ted. … Read More
