here, what we do here, what we
feel here, where we are going.
I'm interested in a poetic,
transcendent, and generous and
expansive expression, which is
like singing or music, with
power and conviction, which
says, "I am here," and its
spirit soars. It is also an
expression of gentle irony and

simulated, natural and
manmade, sublime and
ridiculous, sacred and
mundane. I believe ...
