- Life of all kinds and how we as Human beings interact with it and respond to it, has always interested me.Life's transitory and ephemeral nature makes me want to dig further into the psychology of our (Humanity's) universe. Through my own representational language, be it obvious or obscure, I wish to engage the psyche. By employing that which may be real or imagined, I am suggesting a believable structure, yet one not necessarily rational. If we can say that the world of science is synonymous with truth and the world of art with that of fiction, I want to tread a middle ground that is unusual and seemingly beyond belief, yet also familiar.
