PROJECTED PROJECTS

100 cranes. I want to create a wall of 100 cranes encased in floating plastic to
show how ongoing use of needless plastics are destroying world habitats ,
including our own.

The only statement I can offer for this body of work is framed within this moment in time where I am actively parsing out  and reflecting upon these ideas:

When the premise is untrue, 
How does one continue to perpetuate it?
And,
What ultimately happens to the ones who desperately need to believe the premise?
And ,
Then What?

Hospitality Project

Art reveals the society from which it comes. It confirms and questions the thoughts of the age. It is not meant to answer questions, rather it is to question the answers.

Hospitality Series:

In most religious traditions, hospitality is considered God-like and believers are expected to treat guests with respect and dignity.  Sharing with someone a cup of tea represents a symbol of hospitality. The barb wire clues one in that the hospitality is missing. With the ongoing migrations of people across the globe due to persecution and socio-economic collapse, People are leaving their families and their culture and way of life as a means of survival. Who are we... not to welcome the stranger with  compassion and understanding?
