"Between phantoms lie.. this is an opening, or arising, no? It's like your head grows or pops out of the shirt and breaking the tie.. I always read your work instantly. It's 'a l i v e'.. beware of cannibals."
~ John Felice Ceprano (Ottawa rock sculptor, painter)

"Just as Macri amusingly loosens the tie in one of the portraits, Corporate Assets, I loosen my conventions, as well as the conventional ties that bind. Yes, the artist is playing with the standard uniform of the corporate employee and mentality, imbuing the portrait with a satiric edge. I bind and blind myself, however, if I don’t also strip off general associations to get to the bone."
