I have decided to stop trying to make a specific statement with my work and try to think more intuitively and freely with things that inspire me and the images and objects that can be created from that.
I feel very disconnected with lots of things right now, and I need to stop fighting it and embrace it. Information, emotions, colors, sounds, shapes and day to day occurrences seem to be flying at me and its hard to decipher what is what anymore. this bombardment skews my perception of what is really around me, and things that should otherwise be decipherable now seem to mesh with everything else, thus taking on characteristics outside itself. My previous battles between myself and nature where only touching the surface of what kinds of tension what really going on and although i think the nature culture battle is significant to my narrative, I think there is much more to be seen.
The landscape is an integral part of what inspires me and a maker. The visual information that the landscape provides can at times be confusing in our contemporary culture. The landscape is not only made up of its natural wonders but is also bombarded with the towering presence of culture, which intersects, divides, and destroys the natural landscape. This mash up of forms, textures, colors and shapes can at times skew our perception and things that should otherwise be decipherable now seem to mesh with one another. My interest lies within this unnatural combination and how we are connected to it physically and physiologically.
