The End of the End (Mirage Terminal), 2008, three c-prints, each 30 x 40 inches



The John Wayne Rehearsals (Mirage Terminal), 2008, series of c-prints, each 36 x 36 inches

A wry and detached take on the "death" of the Western film genre, and using the photographic format,

"The work treats the Western as a cinematic junkyard, a collection of images, sounds, and texts deserted by history. [...] [T]he series is also a work of film criticism enacted through other means."
