My work is about the rudiments of human existence, biological
identity, who we are genetically and culturally. I imagine the soundless language of chromosomes within the body at
subatomic levels. Genetic material is passed on, it mutates.
It creates life and lifestyles. Human relationships have been impacted by religion, science, and politics. I search the meager remnants of my cultural and biological identity for images and words to communicate the passion I feel for these universal ideas- for the phenomenon of self coming into consciousness.
Coming To
stand outside during a deep night
turn in a circle
face up
lie on the starry grass
next to your first love
spin out to the fertile void
where light created
itself
no ceiling no floor no skin
swing in the cosmic
cradle
exist weightless
back against solid
earth
grasp the edges of your jeans
hold on
compose yourself.
