Holographic artist and innovator, in the areas of laser and white-light reflection holography, hybrid-sculptural holography, interferometry as art, and stereoscopic 3D video documentation of holographic art and artists.

He is one of the first pioneers of holographic art in Canada, beginning with creations launched in 1972-76, and culminating in the first Canadian solo holographic art exhibition, a traveling  exhibition titled 'Visual Alchemy' (historical text - photos 1973-77) - photo history ( photos - links 1973-1987).

This exhibition included holographic hybrids (sculptures - wall graphics), interferograms as art, and holographic installations. Selections from this exhibition continued to be exhibited internationally for the next twenty-five years and set the pace for many holographers in the upcoming years in both Canada and internationally.

He was the publisher and co-editor of Wavefront magazine (1985-86, and 1990/2000) contributing numerous articles and interviews on the subject of holography. He was the installation officer for 'Images in Time and Space' exhibitions in Pasadena and Burbank, California (1990-91).

He also has an extensive background as a teacher in holography, having conducted a number of hands-on production workshops and was invited twice to the Banff Centre (Canada) to teach Theatre Design featuring holographic imaging and projection techniques.

His holographic art is featured in international collections. His most recent exhibition is the group show 'Deja Vu' - Exhibition of Holographic Art and Stereoscopic 3D, October 2010, Vancouver, Canada.

Other exhibitions include SENEF in Seoul, Korea 2004, where he exhibited a installation of stereoscopic 3D DVDs featuring the works of holographic artists in 3D.

He is the recipient of two Senior Arts Grants in Holography from the Canada Council and a number of additional grants for his work in film, video, and holography. He is the recipient of four Shearwater Foundation grants for his work in documenting holographic artists on the U.S. and Canada west-coasts and his recently-released stereoscopic 3D DVD of holographic artists and their works.
