First of all, 1000 apologies for the ridiculously LONG time inbetween updates to this page. Truth be told, we’ve been far too busy trying to figure out how to stay alive in this overpriced, trendy craphole known as. Seattle to have much time to come up with anything
newsworthy on the Squirrels front to report! And any news we did have to get to the people was probably posted on our MySpace page anyway, since we know that you’re all a bunch of geeks & like that kind of thing, & odds are you were just trolling around on there about ten minutes ago.Still, that’s no excuse for ignoring the News Page for six months. Yeesh! So again- sorry.
That’s about it, I guess (lol).

Inspired by a View-Master and “pop-up” books as a child, Thomas Allen became used thrift store books and pulp fiction paperbacks to recreate these 3D experiences.

Allen gently cuts around the shape of his figures and brings them to life by using detailed lighting and a thin focus. Pulled and positioned, their intended drama comes to life.

In his latest body of work, Allen tells stories of love and desire, voyeurism, homoeroticism, and unrequited love.
