My work explores perceptions of time, the advancement of life on this planet, and the confrontation that ensues when man and nature are forced upon one another. I often use quotidian, recycled materials and video as a tool for sociopolitical thought.
I believe video is an analogous medium to quotidian materials. Whether I present video forthright or as part of a sculpture or installation it serves the same purpose...to clothe time in a different garment. When the role of time can be changed in our thinking then we have the opportunity to look more closely and think more freely.
