Exhibition Statement as Preserved in the SUGS/SITE Archives:

Conventional Wizard presents a body of work that employs American ideology as an explanation for globalized society. Using a set of historical and pop-culture symbols the artists positions himself as a misguided revisionist; investigating and reevaluating our nations elusive notions of progress, up-rise, and safelty that are concealed by a long inheritance of American history based more in myth than fact.
