i work from the place between things >>>
moments,
objects,
people…

absence - solid

between things are in flux - like whatever, continuous movement that at one
disappointment
point or another should (usually) terminate.

definitions of categorical states of existence come and go, leaving the viewer to describe the material, process of manipulation or constructed situations i build in order derive meaning.
relational pairs
‘any minor world that breaks apart falls together again…’
like it always does
like it always does
like it always does

i want to see all things for what they are and what they could or will be – like whatever.
these descriptions come from duplication, re-enactments and tethering the real in another version of the real.  the here and now, it IS what it IS sometimes. but it always IS somewhere.
just sometimes the viewer becomes what it IS.
just sometimes the objects allow the viewer to be what it
IS.
