‘The video was fourteen months in production. Seven months in notes, research, photography, pre-production, art work and direction. It was then all sent to Philip James Cheaney with full trust and faith and he knocked it out of the park with seven more months of motion work and additional art and direction elements. It wouldn’t work without him. We’re working together under the title of Mur Mur Man Productions’ -DJG

Redesigning US bills, part three
‘My currency work originated in California, while I was studying at UC Davis. I was very interested in camouflage at the time. This interest led me to create my first paintings on dollar bills, between 1992-94, in which I camouflaged/painted images onto and into bills. A death in the family led me to the east coast, and faced with the costs of living in New York City on an artist’s budget, I continued to paint on money.’ -HvG
