This body of work is inherently greater than a feigned observation of the obscurities of a grievous nature, it is a cry from the depths of a earthen soul, a way for the awakening self to accept the finality of death; and, afterwards, provide a channel to empathetically transform those captivating emotions into a constructed creation.

Distance.
“The rain sounds like chatter of souls drifting to heaven…” – smeared ink
Discard.
“…The tides of truth washing over crumbling sandcastles, leaving unrecognizable ruins…” – untitled.
Duality.
“It is the union of both the object and its projection, (the real and reflected) that create the final product…” – Shore Party

Here lies the truth,
here lies the end,
hiding amidst the bank of a frigid stream.
Her voice calls with each fall of the frothed crest
Waves sending whispers to those who desire a final passage.

Within me, still, is the spark of the sun
And yet, I stand
Holding a ceremonial urn
Filled with feelings purged by heaven’s fire.
