H A B A T A T G A L L E R I E S P R E S E N T S :
The
American Studio Glass Movement had burst in on my work – my isolation –
in the mid 1960`s. At that time I intensely wanted to express my life in
pictures, clarify things for myself.
I feel as
a human being OUT of TIME. The notion of `Self`, and hence identity,
grips me, disturbs me and motivates me. Everything comes from that. My
interest in the `Self` includes the Others and is guided by constantly
developing inner insights. The insights can be very unclear but can
still be the inspiration behind a work.
I am
testing out old questions of identity: be it inside-outside, symmetry,
layers and core, number two and the double, the goat and the monkey. .
Moments of recognition are what my work needs, that propel me forwards.
Collected moments of clarity become knowledge. I think that is good. |
