Connections
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.
