In the journey, not the destination, is where our minds are truly free to experience and develop an understanding about life...
In the most intimate moments in life, a space exists where we can tear down the social constructs of modern day perceptions about who we are and how we relate to life and love and death. In today's industrialized and service oriented world we are presented with an image at birth of who we are to become and exactly how it is that we are to achieve this. This creates a feeling of isolation and separateness from the world around us and from ourselves. We are eager to connect with each other, with nature, and with... We also have a deep-seated need to believe in something greater than ourselves in hopes of realizing the connection we hold to the things around us. It is in the most intimate moments in life that these connections and realizations are made; in standing on a mountaintop communing with nature, in a loving embrace, in a passionate love affair, in that last breath of life before one dies... These moments create a space where an understanding develops about who we are and how we connect to life and to each other. I'm drawn to search out and recreate the space that these moments provide; in this endeavor it is more important to follow the path until its discovery, rather than relying on the established convention of focusing on the end product as the means in which to arrive at the destination.
