Artist Statements: Part One
Which comes first in human experience, memory or imagination? And what is their relationship to each other? My work hypothesizes that memory and imagination are inextricable. Imagination is the often unpredictable appropriation of memory that recycles our catalogue of experience into new ideas. Memory is at once both a conscious and subconscious faculty that coerces the waking perspective and biases the senses. It is by calculation, quantization, and categorization that the reasoning mind counters. This internal power struggle accounts for some of the most significant relationships in my work; nature versus technology, the mundane verses the extraordinary, the temporal versus the eternal.
