The artwork does not represent anything. The apparent objects
in the framed space are perceptual constructions of our
consciousness and the material the work is composed of simply
is, just like a tree or the sky. None of it requires interpretation -
do you fret because you can't understand a mountain? Because
the patterns have a source in another human being, they may
resonate in you and produce thoughts and emotions. Those are
objects of your consciousness. It may be that the origin of
those evoked objects is the same as the origin of mine. Insofar
as they are, the artwork serves to remind us in a profound way
that we are not so separate as we think. This commonality, for
me, is the root of the Reality of everything and I am in love
with it.
