ekphrasis

EKPHRASIS is art that inspires other art.  


Robert Langdon's poem, "The Hunter, The Bear and Little Cape" inspired me to create "Faire des Choix"

"Faire des Choix' is an assemblage piece (which seemed like a natural progression for my work).  Faire des Choix is about life's many doors and the ones we choose to open and those we choose to ignore.  The choices we make can lead to emptiness...can lead to the wrong path...can lead to everything.  Can be layered and hidden and hard to manage.  Can be easy, yet not true to ourselves.  Each "door" represented in this piece is a path that we can choose to determine our future.  With no guidance and no predictions...we can only learn from past doors that have closed, which ones to choose to open next.
