My work explores the relationship between Jungian archetypes and midlife subcultures. With influences as diverse as Rousseau and Buckminster Fuller, new combinations are crafted from both opaque and transparent layers. Ever since I was a student I have been fascinated by the traditional understanding of relationships. What starts out as hope soon becomes corroded into a tragedy of futility, leaving only a sense of what could have been and the dawn of a new understanding. As subtle replicas become reconfigured through emergent and personal practice, the viewer is left with an epitaph for the limits of our world.
