self-portrait, broken brushpens in sketchbook 12/07 || photo of me as Morrissey at a drag ball by Jenny Tondera
My name is Ed Moorman and I am a Minneapolis-based artist. I am from Princeton, New Jersey and I attend the Minneapolis College of Art and Design (class of '09).
Here's my artist's statement from Kinji Akagawa's Critical Studies class.
I am available for: writing gigs, illustration, commissions, murals, the purchase of original art, tutoring for children (art-related and/or K-12 instruction/homework help with Writing, Reading or Language Arts), babysitting, web design, book design, or editing.
But also if you want to say anything (you want to date me, I make you want to throw up, anything) about my work, I would love to hear from you. ed.is.so.dead (at) gmail.com
I also love letters or postcards!

ps. A note on the address ‘edsdeadbody.com’
Some people ask about my e-mail address (ed.is.so.dead at gmail.com) or site name. It was a play on the Pixies song “Ed Is Dead” that I *cleverly* thought up in early high school for an e-mail address. Over time I came to use variations on it for everything I do on the internet.
Past just that it's funny, a way to look at ‘edsdeadbody.com’ is that a big part of my work is memento-mori (remembering that I will die). Because we will. So I don't want to forget that or waste the precious gift of my time here. |
