Born in Rochester, New York, raised in the San Francisco Bay area, Mr Rogers has always found some kind of artistic outlet. In high school, he was inspired by a friends’ darkroom to learn photography. He pursued this for the next twelve years while focusing on science minded studies in school.

After nearly completing his PhD in Electrical and Computer Engineering, he moved back to San Francisco to work in the computer industry. By this time, his artistic bent had changed somewhat. He’d been making more graffiti/pop-art stickers. This sticker work lead to the creation of Bunnymatic and friends, the characters who populate Mr Rogers’ most recent work.

Now, living in San Francisco, Mr Rogers characters allow him to use and explore different mediums to represent the characters.

We are happy to welcome Mr. Rogers back to our Live Art program, his previous visit to Flax was 1/08/2011.
