DDC classification: CIT Art Collection Online resources: ARTWORK Summary: The work explores the nature of time passing and forms a connection to the secluded moments portrayed. The circle is a lens, through which you can observe the documentation of someone else’s experience. It elevates the act of purely observing your surroundings, and finding the beauty there. The viewer stands in the place of the creator, sharing this moment of isolation and encounter. The primary means of expression is drawing, relying on the detail to draw the viewer into these locations, based in reality but through the process of recreation altered to become a personal interpretation. The leading path occurring in nature and architectural form is employed to create the spaces, intimate & universal. The drawings are inspired by both on-location life experience and collected from photographs of these environments, becoming an externalization of the internal workings of the way each person perceives differently. This is a transfer, a movement of a personal inner world, a relocation of flashes of imagery and snippets of brain activity into a viewable medium - (artist's statement)
