Artist Statement

Meaning lays in the hands of the doer, any test that confirms or denies its truth is irrelevant. The significance may be sublime, obscure, or mundane.

It may well be that everything is true and nothing is true (Albert Camus).
Life is absurd and it’s value is in the hands of the doer, not the agreement of others.
