fill in the blanks







Think about space, escaping, hiding spaces, building a house on a moving object. thriving in departure zones like bus stations and airports. standing still in a dust storm or at the top of Martin Place. waiting watching. think about closing your eyes and imagine running so fast. you breathe fast, start gasping for air and you haven't moved a muscle. lying at the bottom of the pool and looking up through the water. diving. listening to your breath. closing your eyes.







then think about construction/fabrication/make up masks/costumes/houses.







games/ ladders/interiors/superfluous decoration and the definition of O.T.T . and imagine how much you can hide under that distraction, colourful beautiful creative mess.

my new kaleidoscopic images, in prayer


(October sketches from an amazingly clean studio)


new work: on location. Kaleidoscopic, fractured, multifaceted lens. particle theory and connection

subject: tiny images in prayer

sensation overload and confusion. temporal sculpture can wait
operation: this time I forget to think hopefully so I can feel when I am making.

dionysis and apollo undercurrents...chaos and order and alchemy (understanding the practice)

a little big bang, a little anti matter, a little religion, quantum physics and newtonian gravity, and a lot of anti existentialism. Plato and good old Ole Hoystadt(History of the heart). The idea of a tree falling in a forest & does it make a sound. to exist is to be observed? ,maybe. then how is the observer observed... ego, super ego...rah rah rahh...and so on and so on...a little cyber identity, new age plasticity and matrix stuff out the door. I am finished now with plastic fantastic and the constructed world. Flux, you can stay. still
