1. Are humans part of nature or separate from it? 2. Is the earth suited to us, or have we adapted to earth's conditions? 3. Do we find certain things beautiful because of their objective appeal, or have we adapted to value certain types of beauty? 4. What does it mean to be alive in this real but tiny speck of the cosmos? 5. Does the "Truth" matter except for what we individually perceive and understand? 6. Ultimately, what and where are the boundaries between humans and everything else, and what- if anything- does this mean?
The work oscillates between recognizable geometry (circles, spirals) and sweeping, connective fields, shifting scale while maintaining a richly textured intimacy.
