Artist's Statement
The space takes its importance and identity from us as part of the universe in permanent movement and change in its shape, sound, smell, weight, temperature and rhythm. By space, I don't mean its physical state but the words and expressions emanate from the self within its surroundings. Words and expressions which can fly and fill the hollowness that's scattered far and wide. Or simply plummet like a dead sperm unable to swim and reach anywhere. Or they could find themselves submerged and infused into the light and in the flowing equations that
lie between us. Or they can just be kept imprisoned in their extremism. These expressions - fragrances that never surrender or yield - wander endlessly by the effect of the deeds in our margins and await neither a bee effect nor a storm.
