Description
It has become apparent that we are living in different realities
simultaneously. We interact with one another and the world around us.
We share a common language imbued in all of our faces and bodies.
We share experiences, we know the same things. We share words and
stories. We all have a process. We all have grown. Comprehension,
interpretation, intention, and sensibilities all depend on the individual. Each
of us has our own story to tell.
I use creatures as a medium to understand the world through their
perspective. They are vessels of stored energy, an utterance of an idea,
and characters in a mythology of their own.
Collaborating with others has allowed me to bring my characters to life
outside of the walls of this space. In this process I have upheld some
simple pleasures in the concept of contact. Each mark I make on the clay is
a transference of data from me, to the creature, to you. Each conversation
I’ve had with others is now translated here to you.
Thinking of play, toys, home, growth, connection, and collective, how do
these objects interact with one another and how do we interact with them?
As a viewer I invite you to explore each of these individuals’ lives. Ask them
questions. They may not be so different from you or I.
