The Perspective Series

At its essence, the Perspective Series organically invites viewers to engage with my work from multiple vantage points. In today's society, I feel we struggle to embrace diverse perspectives on life and its various facets. Stuck in our ways, we find it difficult to engage in meaningful conversations or connections with those who hold differing beliefs. It’s become an “us vs them” scenario.

Now, more than ever, there is a pressing need for unity, to dismantle these barriers and collectively perceive life through a kaleidoscope of perspectives and vantage points. My hope is that my art serves as an illuminating force, instilling this concept deep into the hearts of its viewers. Stemming from this initial idea, my pieces explore further concepts, such as the Acceptance or Impermanence, while others are born from a simple desire to create or experiment.

From a procedural standpoint, my process is firmly rooted in repetition and meditation. My process starts with silk unraveled from the Bombyx mori silk worm, each strand about as thin as hair. I pull these strands of silk, one to two pieces at a time from the hank, creating bundles of approximately 200 silk pieces. The silk is then dyed before being strung into a shadow box-like frame, each piece secured with a surgical knot.

Setting Intention I is apart of the Making Change sub-series. Before any major change can be made, an intention must be set. I depict this by changing the color of the silk column, but not the pattern. Once a change is made, the pattern shifts (see Making the Change, Indecisiveness).

I depict this by changing the color of the silk column, but not the pattern. Once a change is made, the pattern shifts (see Making the Change, Indecisiveness). This work was inspired by my journey into sobriety. Making a major, positive shift in my life took a lot of effort and work. I was constantly setting the intention to change and never taking the leap to make the actual change until I got the courage to do so.
