My art is a dynamic experience
– a dance heralding all the senses.
My art needs an actual encounter to disclose/reveal its mystery, dance and whisper.

The NEST pieces are a confluence of multiple levels
– echoing image/metaphor/lullaby/hymn of life.
The background color has the luminosity of the ethereal dawn.
The text reflects child speak,
a loss of language skills of a adult whose internal world is alive
and/or
a refugee/immigrant learning English
– all trying to communicate/connect to another.

EMPATHY.
I SEE YOU.
DO YOU SEE ME?

Over The Rainbow
DEDICATED TO MY MOTHER.
15 JANUARY 1997 WAS THE LAST DAY OF HER LIFE.
SHE LOVED THE SONG “OVER THE RAINBOW”.
Joey Alexander (Solo In-Studio Performance)
From the NEST/HEART of a twelve year old boy

REVIEW:
“The path to empathy”
X
“Let’s sing a song of hope, understanding, acceptance.
Let’s welcome strangers, cherish the Earth, listen to others.
Let’s be thoughtful, generous, kind.
Let us protect each other, care for each other, love each other.
Let us be…”
