” My works are visual/sonic compositions/choreographs
that can be heard
with the naked revelation
of an open palm:
unfolding in time and space,
what appears monumental is intimate
and
what is intimate is monumental.
X
My works need an ACTUAL encounter to experience their VITALITY
-like bearing witness to LIVE performances
rather listening to online clips.

The MOON: Aerial MINES portfolio was created in sequence,
like the waves exhaling toward the shoreline
and
inhaling back into the depths of the sea.

It was a long jam session in a recording studio-no edits,
a majestic high dive from a place on the moon to the moon within you:
waning + waxing, dancing + spinning
a slow curtain closing and opening
to reveal
the depth of luminosity and the shine of darkness…”

I dedicate my offerings in THE AUTOMATIC MESSAGE exhibition to:
the late Dr. Mark B. Coventry; my late parents;
my heart family, who sustain me and are my hurricane lamps,
and
to my collectors
whose refined sensibilities could hear
the song, hymn and gospel of my art.

A special thank you to Peter Hannah; Justin Hedstrom; Jim Ross;
Michele Jansen; Kevin Barnes; John Schuerman;
Martina Priadka; Brittany Wallman and Lowell Pickett.
