In art, perception TAKEN FORM, is created in flesh as it were: in pigment, dust, movements of the body, chunks of marble, threads, sounds ... This form carries its life within it, as a human does. It is a created perception of REALITY, an act of the IMAGINATION, expressing its knowledge of the physical and spiritual universe. "Music," someone said, "is the organized revelation of the inherent intelligence of sound."
I feel this could be applied to my work; TO REVEAL THE INHERENT INTELLIGENCE IN THINGS. Everything has mind, spirit, intelligence; I honor these in everything and do not separate myself as a human being from them.
