Eric&#8217;s performances are notoriously full of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=c4wfbqQo2Ts&amp;feature=related\" target=\"_blank\">energy, chaos, and spectacle<\/a>. He often can be found wearing a handmade <a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=YxXXCZV2xv0\" target=\"_blank\">X-mas light jacket<\/a>, making out with his synths, or climbing on the furniture during his shows.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/c3northampton.org\/?attachment_id=215\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-215\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-215 size-medium\" title=\"The 77 Praying Children\" src=\"http:\/\/c3artscollective.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/eric-children-590x442.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"590\" height=\"442\" srcset=\"http:\/\/c3artscollective.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/eric-children-590x442.jpg 590w, http:\/\/c3artscollective.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/eric-children-950x712.jpg 950w, http:\/\/c3artscollective.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/eric-children.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 590px) 100vw, 590px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Eric comes from a long line of Ukranian machinists. His sculptures, like his music, are full of repetition, color, and movable parts. Eric&#8217;s recent projects include a trio of Saint Storm Trooper figurines, one of which currently resides in my kitchen, 77 praying wax children(above), and a series of ceremonial masks. Eric also makes screen printed flyers, multi-media installations, and damn good kale &amp; beans.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Eric lives in Northampton and is currently enrolled at Hampshire College.
