Torii
2013

Torii are those iconic Japanese gates that were originally put at Shinto shrines to demarcate the boundary between the sacred and profane worlds.

Right now I seem to be turning over in my mind the concept of change, transition.

Whether it be in space or time, there is something magic about the moment the shift occurs when one moment you're in one season or world or state of mind, and the next, you are completely in another.

  2. Thanks!
    You know, different materials and processes call me to work in different ways. I'm sure you know what I mean. I see it in your work, too. Isn't it fun? Like getting to play all the instruments in the band!
