I work by process of discovery. I bring together discarded image,
creating a family with members that resemble my own. These snapshots
are of adopted relatives with self-inflicted histories.
"Brinker's body of work reminds the veiwer of snapshots- moments that
stick,
scenes that flash back over and over. He pulls together references both
easily
recognized as well as private. The overall effect of the multi-media work
will make you laugh and flinch in the same breath."
