Artist Statement:
A tiny hand moves along a
wall, feeling its way with
care, sensing, seeing. Across
a hard polished headboard,
down to a soft, pliant pillow,
the hand continues its
journey, arriving at length on
the warm, sleeping form of a
woman.
She dreams a caress as
the hand explores the contours
of her face. Fingers feel
their way from her forehead
downward. Eyes, cheeks,
lingering on lips, chin, neck,
necklace.
The woman awakes,
startled to find her blind
young son leaning over her
bed. She scolds him, saying
"Fingers are not like eyes".
In this scene from the
Australian film, PROOF, a
blind man flashes back to a
moment in childhood which had
a significant effect on who he
has become as an adult.
As a visual artist, I
am continually exploring
memories, attempting to
understand both the external
and internal aspects of who I
am in relation to the world
around me. This
"understanding" eventually
finds expression as a work of
art. Take a few minutes to
explore my world by visiting
my image gallery. Let me know
what you think. After all, we
are all part of the same
world, we just see it through
different eyes.
