Architecture, Design, and Art participate in shaping the horizon of possibilities in our lives. Works of art become gateways for accessing greater degrees of life by attuneing our lived bodies to cosmological modes inherent in the perceptual forms.
“Before all else I learned that these playthings were not mere idle trifles invented by manufacturers and dealers for the purpose of gain. They were, on the contrary, a little or, rather a big world, authoritative and beautiful, many sided, containing a multiplicity of things all of which had the one and only aim of serving love, refining the senses, giving life to the dead world around us, endowing it in a magical way with new instruments of love, from powder and scent to the dancing show, from ring to cigarette case, from waist-buckle to handbag.”
- Hermann Hesse“ Steppenwolf”
LIVED SPACE
The medium of Architecture - space - is not an empty material void. All space is existential space. All Architecture promotes or hinders the flourishing of life.
SHAPING PERCEPTION
The work of art shapes perception. It orients us to things previously beyond the perceivableto and also shapes the very lived act of perceiving itself. This body of work is a collection of paintings and sculptures that deal directly with existential perceptual patterns that lead to transformation of the individual self.
OBJECTS FOR LIFE
Objects for everyday use embody character in their form and construction. This character is an understanding of the world. We take on and harmonize with this understading through our daily use of them.
