MASKED

“I relish experiencing a sense of place, unexpected discoveries wherever I am.  The MASKED theme, draws me to discovery the many different ways to cover up a hole in the street.   Many are round, preventing a person from falling in when working down under.  They are meant to protect and cover up.  I hope you’ll be inspired to notice what’s in front of you in a new way.”

                

MY WORK — (Top Photo) In attempting to give the land a voice, I strive to notice my surroundings and hope to inspire others to do so. In nature, I tend to see things metaphorically—the different textures and shapes representing different aspects of my life and world.

What’s around me?  Frosty mornings, I awake to magical, crystal tracks patterned in my window.  The pond water reflects and holds things afloat—both of which I need to do.  Because of my awareness of our gigantic population, I’m fascinated with masses of things.  What collectively do we look like?
