Meandering

“You didn’t come into this world. You came out of it, like a wave from the ocean. You are not a stranger here.” -Alan Watts

After a year in deep meditation, I began visiting a void beyond mindfulness itself. It was a hole of nothingness consisting of everything and nothing all at once. The scape and the self rippled into one, and I realized the truth that to live was to meander. In this series, paperclay is sculpted to revitalize old, abandoned objects and renew them into awakening, shedding the light on our true inner spirit. Gestural sculptural applications convey the pulsating underlying waves of collective unconsciousness. Intensive graphite surface textures depict our physical reality beginning to break free from constraint. Trusting intuition through stream of consciousness work styles, drawings are coaxed out of the sculptural forms, unplanned and taking on a life of their own. At the heart of the series, the ephemeral figures are enjoying the moment and breaking free of all barriers by dancing and unifying into the scapes.
