Mark P. Hensel
Austin, TX
 Mark P. Hensel, soon to graduate from UT-Austin, began his career with dinosaur drawings in the late eighties. In the Fall of 2004 he went to live in the desert for a few months, where, upon discovering actual fossils, he decided to become a performance artist. Over the past year he has been alternatively working with a blue plastic tarp or monsters, his only two means of defense in the wilderness. After obtaining a degree in cryptozoology, he plans to move into the field of robotics. His alter ego draws comics for the Daily Texan.

The tarp is amorphous, atemporal and blue. The heavens are amorphous, atemporal and blue. In both, we see monsters. My video, modeled off UFO or Sasquatch-sighting footage, is an attempt to confront these monsters through the formal tools of art. |
