Drought Resistant is the circulation of materials and methods that yields a self-sustaining

practice. This practice is a hearty adaptation, consistently providing stimulation and surprise by

honoring the intrinsic qualities of common materials, whether work piece or waste, found or

fabricated. Each work freezes a moment that ordinarily exists as a fleeting glimpse. My

constructions are as much about haptic engagements with tools and materials as they are about

visual dialogues. Each plant is a literal metaphor that grows out of this process, the float frame

is an physical arena built to negotiate and contain each individual performance.

Jonathan Anzalone has an active workshop in the Richmond district of San Francisco.

His woodshop/art studio makes a wide spectrum of objects in a constant conversation between

furniture and visual art.
