Bravo Casting Call!
Bravo's latest stroke on the reality canvas will be an hour long creative competition series among contemporary artists. The "Untitled Art Project" will bring together thirteen aspiring artists to compete for a gallery show, a cash prize and a sponsored national tour. Open calls for artists interested in competing in this new competition series will be held in cities across the country starting in July.
In each episode of the series, contestants will create unique pieces highlighting art's role in everyday life, while they compete and create in a range of disciplines including sculpture, painting, photography and industrial design (to name a few). In working beyond their preferred mediums, artists will have to adapt quickly in order to succeed. Completed works of art will be appraised by a panel of top art world figures including fellow artists, gallerists, collectors, curators and critics. The finalists' work will be showcased in a nation-wide museum tour.

I auditioned for the show and got cut, but I had a blast. I also made the NYTimes and got called a "Big Sissy" by an art website. My dream has never been to be on a reality tv show, but to have a NY gallery show my work was my goal. Maybe that will come...
