Artist
Statement The
speed at which our lives work is getting faster and less stable everyday.
Technology tries too hard to make our lives better and frequently
just makes it more complicated and less real. Sometimes it is the simple
things which are able to speak volumes; or in their quietude transport
us to a more ethereal sublime state. Barriers surround us and define
us. From our skin to the stone walls around our possessions to lines
on a map. The edge or the border is the home of doubt and anxiety.
At the threshold there is transformation and change, which our minds
either comfortably confront or vigorously repel. I am interested in
duality and the tension or blurring of opposites. At what point does
anything change? Where and when does chaos become ordered or ultimately
at rest? |
