Artist Statement:
Art as expression. On the
level of writing. Poetry,
prose or stream of
consciousness ramble. Visual
art used to express things
words do not comfortably
cover. Visual art used before
words are even formulated.
Purer...I think. More
encompassing of general
truth...I believe. Words, I
am familiar with, as we all
are. Words, as explanation,
are capable of expressing the
already known. They may be
capable of expressing the
unknown, but the words
themselves bind that unknown,
enigmatic thing. This leaves
out levels of understanding,
levels of being. Art, on the
other hand, forces you to
attempt to reach a more
complete understanding.
Beyond words and their
accepted meaning. Beyond the
known. Art should lead to the
very questions...What, Why,
How, When. What about this
interests me? Why does this
seem to be art? How am I
supposed to react? When
[insert anything here]?
The questions and questioning.
The beginning of
consciousness. The essential
thing that both befuddles and
defines humanity. The
aesthetic brings about
pondering pause.
