Statement - Subjects which reaquaint with the power of ancient
metaphors excite me. Ordinary things may evoke surprizing emotions
and associations, not the least are humor and awe. Neutral things
when grouped may seem to possess an inner life and movement suggestive
of the intermingling of the human and spirit realms. Symmetry and
organization transform mundane into supramundane. Gross materialism
and conformity, seem, deadening. In contrast traditional societies
still dominated by religion and child rearing burst with life. Natural
expressive people offer unguarded moments conveying hope, pride,
curiosity and sometimes despair with a glance. Poignant moments
recorded on film create an aching to know the subjects history,
but particularly their future. Immediate caring and connection melt
the heart and make us feel human.
