These little lights are a lifesaver. Literally. For $3.75 you can make your presence felt while riding your bicycle along side the idiots who choose to drive needlessly and recklessley on city streets everywhere.

Due to my own incompetence I rarely remember to remove these lights from my bike when I stop to do my thing. This laziness results in my lights being stolen randomly by some cleptomaniac collecting them for some unknown reason. I accept this fact and blame myself for not having the due dilligence to remove my lights so I don't tempt the oppurtunists trying to save five bucks.

However what bugs me is the assholes who feel compelled to turn these lights off when they see them blinking when I stop briefly for a coffee or a snack. Numerous times I have gone in and out of a store for no more than thirty seconds only to come out and find my lights extinguished.

From a distance I fear I have been ripped off again. After getting in view of the lights and realizing they are still there I get bummed out thinking the battery has died. Upon further inspection I realize they are fine but some kind of ultra-orthodox energy zealot has decided to save the world by turning one bike light off at a time.

The few times I have caught these bike light freedom fighters in action my first thought is that they are fucking with my bike which almost earns them a kick in the teeth. After realizing what they are up to I tell them to step away from the light politely. However these knuckleheads become indigant and act like they are doing you a favour or preforming some sort of public service.

For those of you in our society compelled to fuck with these please know that we purposely leave them on and your annoying habit is not needed or wanted by a majority of the cyclists who use these lights. So hands off or I will break your twitchy little fingers.

Mauzman is the character that has evolved to represent my artwork. I have done this to protect my mother from embarrassment and to avoid legal harrassment for the copyrights I am apparently infringing on a daily basis.

I'm not a Visual Artsit In the traditional sense. My work seems to be more pornographic in nature than artistic. My allegiance in depicting taboo socio-political issues has won me both praise and riddicule in various social circles.

I do not simply want to offend the viewer but illicit a base visceral response in the audience similar to that of a erection. This momentary command of the audience allows the ideas present in my work to resonate long after any exhibition of.

This site is a tool to remind the viewer that is okay to be critical. That as an sovereign individual it is still okay to discuss, disagree and even ridicule the people,places,things and ideas that make up the world around us without the fear of punishment by those who seek to minimize debate of any form.

Whether my work makes you laugh or cry depends on how close you were to your uncle as a child. Don't blame my work because your Dad's brother always wanted to take care of you and for some reason the ice cream he gave you made you sleepy.

Hope you enjoy!!!!
