Is that a distant forest at dusk or just a smear of black paint? When the balance is just so my imagination lights up and insights about how thought and sensation interact to form memory and aspiration.
These were all created in 2023. As I look back on them, they also read like a diary for me. Certainly they are not as personal for others. But I am pretty sure that doesn’t matter to you. Perhaps they are personal to you in other ways. Maybe one reminds you of a hike you took once, another maybe of favorite place or just the way the sky looks as fall slips into winter. Where else do you see these things other than nature itself? And what other purpose could these have other than decorating one’s walls? I don’t know, and I’m not even sure that decorating isn’t reason enough. But I’m banking on them having a similar affect on you as they do on me … that they trigger your imagination and yield some insight about how you conceptualize things and how memory is forged and seared in through thoughtful reflection.
