This piece is a contribution to the mosaic of human experience. Human experiences are a compilation of emotion and memories. Memories are unique because they can never be re-lived. They exist in an almost mythical plane, heightened by whatever emotion we’re feeling at the time. I’m interested in expressing those sublime moments. Moments that would lose their value if they lasted forever.  I try to give these transient moments the space to be grander. Our memories exist to entice us to make more. It is our gift for living.
