Observance

Observations is a body of photographs of floral arrangements with and companion work of videos. A mediation on mortality and the fullness of life.  As a witness the Aids Crisis, and the lose of many friends. I find myself in a familiar cycle many of people who have made in impact on my life are facing their mortality. I have been thinking of ways of honoring these people and those that remain. Using a still life at a metaphor for the ephemerality of the nature of time.   Observations takes a note from the Dutch conceptualist Bas Jan Ader work Primary.  I am producing Videos where the vase is full it gets rearranged and emptied and rearranged again please go to my Vimeo account to view samples this work.
