My art through Patina Powerhouse is rooted in the documentation of functional historic machinery through cinematic digital video. Antique machines have unique characteristics through the sounds they make, their shape, form, origin stories, and use. The goal is to allow viewers to appreciate these features in any way they see fit, which could include:

-The simple joy of the sights and sounds of something old and rare in functional form

-The value of keeping interest in our historical past alive

-Educating those who are looking to learn more about the items that used to make the world work as well as any precursor technology to how the world works today.

-Appreciation and enjoyment of cinema video
