Artist Statement

The hour hand’s steady march, the view from the train during commute, the puzzle of the sphinx, events from the past and visions of the future; the marks we make as we pass through this life, a type of obscured cryptography to be pondered and deciphered by a later generation.

Time marks the movement of the hand, light marks the movements of the body, maps show us were we are and were we are headed. These tools help us explore or surroundings. The mind moves the flesh through a labyrinth of possibilities.
