The coffee style table is entitled “The Bridge Table” and it is constructed from Cocobolo (Dalbergia retusa) and CNC machined 6061 brushed aluminum. The table measures 53.65” side to side, 15.75” front to back, and 20.75” height. The wood is coated with 5 coats of Watco oil modified with a phenolic resin and the aluminum is coated with a clear high gloss industrial acrylic coating. The sides are joined to the top with hand cut dovetails in a specifically designed pattern to add strength to the joint of the two book matched edge glued boards forming the top and sides and for the patterns visual appeal. The aluminum cross brace is tenoned through the sides and is wedge with Cocobolo wedges in slots cut into the aluminum, which are pre-bent. The machined aluminum feet are actually levelers which can be adjusted to account for uneven floors.
The design was formulated from viewing bridges from a distance particularly the George Washington Bridge from the upper floors of Columbia Presbyterian Hospital in Manhattan. The materials were chosen for the contrast of hardened metal and natural wood as well as the color difference between the lighter and cooler brushed aluminum and the darker warmer Cocobolo. The other reason for the combination is contrast between the uniform color of the aluminum against the strikingly varied Cocobolo. The single board of Cocobolo chosen for the project is old growth which had been cut for more then 25 years minimizing our impact on the current logging market for this species. Because of the elaborate grain pattern of the wood, which we wanted to capitalize on, we re-sawed the board and book matched the sides and top. The top and sides were joined to create a sense of continuity allowing the grain to flow from these elements.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deadnettle
Lamium (deadnettle) is a genus of about 40-50 species of flowering plants in the family Lamiaceae, of which family it is the type genus. They are all herbaceous plants native to Europe, Asia, and north Africa, but several have become very successful weeds of crop fields and are now widely naturalised across the temperate world.
The genus includes both annual and perennial species; they spread by both seeds and stems rooting as they grow along the ground.
The common name refers to their superficial resemblance to the unrelated stinging nettles, but unlike those, they do not have stinging hairs and so are harmless or apparently "dead".
Lamiums are frost hardy and grow well in most soils. Flower colour determines planting season and light requirement: white- and purple-coloured flowered species are planted in spring and prefer full sun. The yellow-flowered ones are planted in fall (autumn) and prefer shade. They often have invasive habits and need plenty of room. Propagate from seed or by division in early spring
The Duomo, the medieval cathedral, entitled to Santa Maria Assunta (St. Mary of the Assumption) is a five-naved cathedral with a three-naved transept. Construction was begun in 1064 by the architect Busketo, and set the model for the distinctive Pisan Romanesque style of architecture. The mosaics of the interior, as well as the pointed arches, show a strong Byzantine influence.
The façade, of grey marble and white stone set with discs of coloured marble, was built by a master named Rainaldo, as indicated by an inscription above the middle door: "Rainaldus prudens operator".
The massive bronze main doors were made in the workshops of Giambologna, replacing the original doors destroyed in a fire in 1595. The central door was in bronze and made around 1180 by Bonanno Pisano, while the other two were probably in wood. However worshippers never used the façade doors to enter, instead entering by way of the Porta di San Ranieri (St. Ranieri's Door), in front of the Leaning Tower, made in around 1180 by Bonanno Pisano.
Above the doors there are four rows of open galleries with, on top, statues of Madonna with Child and, on the corners, the Four evangelists.
Also in the façade we can find the tomb of Busketo (on the left side) and an inscription about the foundation of the Cathedral and the victorious battle against Saracens.
The interior is faced with black and white marble and has a gilded ceiling and a frescoed dome. It was largely redecorated after a fire in 1595, which destroyed most of the medieval art works. Fortunately, the impressive mosaic, in the apse, of Christ in Majesty, flanked by the Blessed Virgin and St. John the Evangelist, survived the fire. The present gold-decorated ceiling carries the coat of arms of the Medici.
The elaborately carved pulpit (1302–1310), which also survived the fire, was made by Giovanni Pisano and is one the masterworks of medieval sculpture. It was packed away during the redecoration and was not rediscovered and re-erected until 1926. The pulpit is supported by plain columns (two of which mounted on lions sculptures) on one side and by caryatids on the other.
The church also contains the bones of St Ranieri, Pisa's patron saint, and the tomb of the Holy Roman Emperor Henry VII, carved by Tino da Camaino in 1315. That tomb, originally in the apse just behind the main altar, was disassembled and changed position many times during the years for political reasons. At last the sarcophagus is still in the Cathedral, but some of the statues were put in the Camposanto or in the top of the façade of the church. The original statues now are in the Museum of the Opera del Duomo. Pope Gregory VIII was also buried in the cathedral. The fire in 1595 destroyed his tomb.
The Cathedral has a prominent role in determining the beginning of the Pisan New Year. Between the tenth century and 1749, when the Tuscan calendar was reformed, Pisa used its own calendar, in which the first day of the year was on March 25, which is the day of the Annunciation of the Virgin Mary. The Pisan New Year begins 9 months before the ordinary one. The exact moment is determined by a ray of sun that, through a window on the left side, hit a shelf egg-shaped on the right side, just above the pulpit by Giovanni Pisano. This occurs at noon.
In the Cathedral also can be found some relics brought during the Crusades: the remains of three Saints (Abibo, Gamaliel and Nicodemus) and a vase that it is said to be one of the jars of Cana.

This piece is entitled "self portrait of ones entire life". I executed this piece with the a theory I developed that is called Dimensionalism . This theory has its inspiration form my experiences with pre-seizure events for I have epilepsy. In this state I become detached from reality and see time in a different construct,that of a hyper intensity. A hyper awareness of a moment and everything that constructs it from sounds,thoughts,things tactile . While in these pre seizure states, some instances time is slowed down/speed up or frozen. While in other instances I am forced away form all comprehension of what is in my present environment and reality takes on a totally foreign existence where all has to be re learned.
For the viewers of my piece all of life is in dimensions and how one moves through these dimensions of either large dimensional constructs such as ones life or to the minute dimensional construct of a simple word. Thus giving the viewer this new perspective of time and space. The suspended animation of the piece is only dynamic as the viewer views the piece from the narrower sides form either end where a visible play of time sequencing exists and ones eye is drawn into the piece...
A perspective of a Dimesionalist where one has a view of a moment with a gods eye/time traveler or a pure energy source . From looking at a simple word to a memory one has. All is captured in dimensions. There are other branches of my theory that further portray my experiences. Demensionalising and facitile dimensionalism. These ideas also play with the constructs of how one sees time/moment.I hope to execute these ideas in the future...........
All these ideas/theories have a direct correlation with present day society...from the over abundance of information that is transferred by different technologies to the ways these technologies directly affect our existence and how it adds other dimensions of time to our lives.
I will be placing more info online in the future. and creating a temp website that fully explains all the details and shows examples of these theories as well as go into more details..

Since entitling this I have seen that it is most likely going to be taken literally. The storm to which I was alluding, is the struggle to preserve the environment in the face of the demand for energy and minerals.
Kimberly Max, a photographer recently graduated from Pratt (2004), has just completed her first full-length project, entitled Bubby’s House. The Yiddish-inflected title speaks to the intimacy with which the artist regards her subject, in this case, the home of her grandparents, in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan. It is place and not time, though, that attracted the lens of Ms. Max. Living in Brooklyn for the past three years, Ms. Max has faced the reality of living away from her Michigan home, and family. She has combated this in various ways, none so effectively than in her recent project.
On the surface, Bubby’s House is a documentary project. Invited by her aunt to document her grandfather’s house, Ms. Max seized upon the opportunity to capture an architectural and aesthetic treasure. Her grandparent’s house was decorated in the early 1970’s and has seen almost no renovation since that time. The house has, in fact, been preserved, and exudes a kitsch-ness that is not so often seen in contemporary life.
But again, the documentary aspect in a purely surface matter, because when one looks deeper into the project, we see the cross-section of time and place, of artist and subject even. The photographs were taken in 2003, yet they capture a house that, structurally and aesthetically, is frozen in 1971, before the artist was even born.
At first glance, the images look artificial, contrived, dollhousey. One asks if what they are looking at actually exists. This speaks to the wonderful manner in which Ms. Max dissected her subject. Through her lens, each room lives and breathes within its own borders, disconnected from other rooms of the house. Each room is its own character, another family member, maybe?
This project, though seemingly a simple documentary of a visually stimulating environment, is much more. It is a project about family, about time, and about place. Our family’s change, and yet they remain whole. Patriarchs die, leaving a family to memorialize him. Everything outside this house has changed; inside, little, including taste, has evolved. What must have been the cream of interior decorating in the early 1970’s has become a time capsule of an outdated aesthetic age. This is why we do not believe the photographs are real. We assume they are the product of fabrication.
And the house is a conglomeration of fabricated elements. The range of material to be found on display in Ms. Max’s work is vast; we find shag carpeting, that pinnacle of 70’s chic, we find glass, wood, marble, linen wallpaper, Formica, plastic chairs, vinyl, fur pillows granite, and veined Italian marble. Ms. Max captures these materials appropriately in her series. Each room, each photo, contains a treasure trove of forgotten interior design secrets.
Coupled with these purely formal elements, Ms. Max’s abilities with a camera shine. Her choice of angles is exquisite. She controls each scene in such a way, that behind the formal elements of beds, and desks, and fireplaces, there is something lurking within this antiseptic environment. Behind the straight lines of the mirror, we assume the softer curvilinear shapes of people. It is people, after all, that are the subject of these images. Where people live, to be exact. What kind of environment people create for themselves. And yet it is people that are mysteriously absent. The only family members we see are those trapped in other photos, in family albums put on display, like those in the Den.
This project is all about people. It is about the artist’s family. It is about how and where these people have lived for the past thirty years. It is about the next generation coming of age, outside of this home, where taste have changed, where lives have changed, where a granddaughter grows up, and finishes a project her grandfather started a long time ago.

The coffee style table is entitled “The Bridge Table” and it is constructed from Cocobolo (Dalbergia retusa) and CNC machined 6061 brushed aluminum. The table measures 53.65” side to side, 15.75” front to back, and 20.75” height. The wood is coated with 5 coats of Watco oil modified with a phenolic resin and the aluminum is coated with a clear high gloss industrial acrylic coating. The sides are joined to the top with hand cut dovetails in a specifically designed pattern to add strength to the joint of the two book matched edge glued boards forming the top and sides and for the patterns visual appeal. The aluminum cross brace is tenoned through the sides and is wedge with Cocobolo wedges in slots cut into the aluminum, which are pre-bent. The machined aluminum feet are actually levelers which can be adjusted to account for uneven floors.
The design was formulated from viewing bridges from a distance particularly the George Washington Bridge from the upper floors of Columbia Presbyterian Hospital in Manhattan. The materials were chosen for the contrast of hardened metal and natural wood as well as the color difference between the lighter and cooler brushed aluminum and the darker warmer Cocobolo. The other reason for the combination is contrast between the uniform color of the aluminum against the strikingly varied Cocobolo. The single board of Cocobolo chosen for the project is old growth which had been cut for more then 25 years minimizing our impact on the current logging market for this species. Because of the elaborate grain pattern of the wood, which we wanted to capitalize on, we re-sawed the board and book matched the sides and top. The top and sides were joined to create a sense of continuity allowing the grain to flow from these elements.
Museum de Fundatie Zwolle NL presents an exhibition entitled Giacometti-Chadwick, Facing Fear, to run from 22 September 2018 to 6 January 2019. The sculptures of Alberto Giacometti (1901-1966) and Lynn Chadwick (1914-2003) are manifestations of the sense of fear and disillusionment that pervaded Europe during the Cold War period. Their work bids a final farewell to pre-war romanticism and aestheticism, and lands with both feet in the raw reality of the post-war world. While Giacometti reduced the human form to its bare essentials, Chadwick created powerful archetypal images of both people and animals. The exhibition includes more than 150 works. Never before has the work of Giacometti and Chadwick been so explicitly brought together.
Their paths first crossed in 1956, when Chadwick became the youngest person ever to win the Grand Prix for Sculpture at the Venice Biennale. With only six years’ experience as a sculptor, the British artist snatched the prize from Giacometti, the hot favourite, who was thirteen years older and already a major name in Paris. Giacometti would go on to win the prize in 1962, but which of the two men was awarded it in 1956 is less significant than the fact that these two particular sculptors were the front-runners at that time. Each of them was expressing, in his own individual way, the sense of deep-seated angst that overshadowed day-to-day life in Europe in the fifties and sixties: the fear of a global nuclear disaster that would wipe out human civilisation.
Alberto Giacometti is among the most significant figures in the whole field of modern European sculpture. A member of a notable family of Swiss artists, he moved to Paris in 1922 and would remain there for the rest of his life, working as a sculptor, painter and graphic artist. After training with Émile-Antoine Bourdelle, he discovered modernism and so-called ‘primitive’ ethnographic art of Africa and Oceania. In response to these influences, his work became more abstract. In the early thirties, his Surrealist sculptures expressing subconscious emotions created a furore. From 1935, however, personal psychological tensions triggered a crisis in his life and work that led to a return to the human figure. Initially, his portraits and figures became both increasingly tiny and more and more attenuated. This thinness was to remain the most distinctive feature of Giacometti’s art. After the Second World War, he began to create the elongated, emaciated figures that would bring him worldwide fame. In all their attenuation, they reduce humanity to its very essence and appear both vulnerable and enigmatic.
In the early fifties, up-and-coming artist Lynn Chadwick managed to dislodge Henry Moore and Barbara Hepworth from their dominant position in the field of British sculpture. Born in London, Chadwick had started his career as a technical draughtsman and exhibition stand designer. He took an equally constructional approach to his sculpture: rather than model his human and animal figures in clay or wax, he constructed them by welding steel rods together to create an armature and then filling in the gaps with a kind of cement. The angularity of the work being produced by him and other young British artists was described in 1952 as ‘the geometry of fear’, a reference to the constant dread of nuclear annihilation. Chadwick’s apocalyptic Dancers and stoical Watchers gave powerful expression to this sense of angst. From the early seventies, he broadened his repertoire to include subjects that seem to restore the sovereignty of the human spirit. Sculptures like Cloaked Figure and Sitting Couple no longer look threatening, but emanate a sense of composure and invulnerability.
Giacometti’s pre-war work influenced Chadwick’s development and the two men were keenly aware of each other’s presence. In addition to the vast differences, there are also many similarities between their oeuvres. Giacometti-Chadwick, Facing Fear is the product of close cooperation with the Fondation Marguerite et Aimé Maeght in Saint-Paul-de-Vence and the Chadwick Estate and Blain|Southern gallery in London.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HeucheraThe genus Heuchera includes at least 50 species of herbaceous perennial plants in the family Saxifragaceae, all native to North America. Common names include alumroot and coral bells. They have palmately lobed leaves on long petioles, and a thick, woody rootstock. The genus was named after Johann Heinrich von Heucher (1677–1746), an 18th century German physician.
Alumroot species grow in varied habitats, so some species look quite different from one another, and have varying preferences regarding temperature, soil, and other natural factors. H. maxima is found on the Channel Islands of California, where it grows on rocky, windy, saline-washed ocean shores. H. sanguinea, called coral bells because of its terra cotta-colored flowers, can be found in the warm, dry canyons of Arizona. Gardeners and horticulturists have developed a multitude of hybrids between various Heuchera species. There is an extensive array of blossom sizes, shapes, and colors, foliage types, and geographic tolerances.
Though tangy and slightly astringent, the leaves may be used to liven up bland greens.
Natives of the Northwest U.S. have used tonic derived of Alumroot roots to aid digestive difficulties, but extractions from the root can also be used to stop minor bleeding, reduce inflammation, and otherwise shrink moist tissues after swelling.

In a piece entitled Buddenbrooks 1913 – 2009, I utilised the ability to illustrate time
in video. Partly a performance piece, Thomas Mann sits perfectly still and awaits
his photograph being taken. The flash goes down and periodically nothing is visible,
then the lights come back on. However, still Thomas Mann sits there, continuously
waiting, as if frozen in a moment or time. The looped video portrays the fragility of
memory and the inability to validate what a pictured somebody pictured was
actually like. Furthermore, it speaks also about how one single instance in time can
travel. This piece was a milestone for my practice, as it began to display an
important theme in my work - the importance of the work is not to simply transcribe
past events, but to accentuate the overt nature of the mechanisms used to capture
the moments. Though seemingly contradictory, I am interested in the potential of
contriving early photographic methods with the use of digital technology. Doing
this allows me to appreciate the processes used and as a result further embeds
Thomas Mann into the practice.
This Christmas bauble, entitled "Christmas Fan" depicting a fan tied with a bow was hand beaded with sequins and pins by me. I have a Christmas tradition. I bead one Christmas bauble for a select group of friends every year.
"Christmas Fan" is going to a friend of mine, who has a white Christmas tree which she decorates with gold and red coloured decorations. Her Christmas baubles always feature things that are either red or gold, or in this case both, with a gold fan with red ribbon on one side and a red fan tied with a gold ribbon on the other. Past baubles feature pointsettias or red and gold stars.
Each bauble is 25 centimetres in diameter and contain hundreds of sequins, varying in number depending upon the complexity of the image and the type of sequins I use. Most sequins in this bauble are 5mm in diameter, except the white background ones which are 8mm. Depending upon the colour of the sequin, I will use either a gold or a silver pin to attach it to the bauble. The white and black sequins all use silver pins, The gold and red sequins are affixed with gold pins.
Each bauble takes approximately 6 hours per side, and this is why my select group of friends only get one each year!
It is however, a labour of love which I do to pass the time throughout the year.

A new book, entitled "Richard Dawkins: How a Scientist Changed the Way We Think," presents a series of essays from a wide range of academic (& non-academic) disciplines & interlocutors on Richard Dawkins's seminal text, "The Selfish Gene," and its impact on contemporary society. Contributors to the book are mostly biologists but include the novelist Phillip Pullman, author of "His Dark Materials," and the bishop of Oxford, Richard Harries.
Those who know me are aware of my antipathy for superstition (e.g., particularly what Gore Vidal terms the Sky God religions) & its nefarious influence in the world of empiricism, reason, science, & public policy (namely, the world in which we live). For me, Richard Dawkins is a true hero, intellectual & otherwise (he regularly receives death threats from fanatics of various religions).
Dr. Dawkins is, as the novelist Phillip Pullman so cogently observed, "a ferocious and implacable opponent of those who water the dark roots of superstition."

The Basilica of the Sacred Heart of Paris, commonly known as Sacré-Cœur Basilica and often simply Sacré-Cœur (Basilique du Sacré-Cœur), is a Roman Catholic church and minor basilica, dedicated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, in Paris, France. A popular landmark, the basilica is located at the summit of the butte Montmartre, the highest point in the city. Sacré-Cœur is a double monument, political and cultural, both a national penance for the defeat of France in the 1871 Franco-Prussian War and the socialist Paris Commune of 1871 crowning its most rebellious neighborhood, and an embodiment of conservative moral order, publicly dedicated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, which was an increasingly popular vision of a loving and sympathetic Christ.
The Sacré-Cœur Basilica was designed by Paul Abadie. Construction began in 1875 and was finished in 1914. It was consecrated after the end of World War I in 1919
Sacré-Cœur is built of travertine stone quarried in Château-Landon (Seine-et-Marne), France. This stone constantly exudes calcite, which ensures that the basilica remains white even with weathering and pollution.
A mosaic in the apse, entitled Christ in Majesty, created by Luc-Olivier Merson, is among the largest in the world.
The basilica complex includes a garden for meditation, with a fountain. The top of the dome is open to tourists and affords a spectacular panoramic view of the city of Paris, which is mostly to the south of the basilica [Wikipedia.org]
This chap was one of many, many old-school wrestling fans attending 'Wrestlemania 24' in Orlando who really didn't like wrestler, John Cena.
I have no idea what they planned to do with these signs which had been signed by fans with a similar opinion of Cena but they were going around asking people to sign them anyway.
I have no beef with Cena (these days) in fact I quite like his current storyline with the evil Nexus (who's own T-Shirt sales were so appalingly low lately.....hmmmm) but since he was wrestling two of my favourite WWE wrestlers of all time 'Triple H' and Randy Orton and had beaten my other favourite wrestler, Shawn Michaels, at my first Wrestlemania in Detroit the previous year, I had no choice but to sign the sign.
If you zoom in and look in the 'A' in 'Cena' you can see my name.....sorry John :(
POST PROCESSING - I used the lens correction tool to give this one a 'wide-angle' feel before desaturating the background 50%, adding a slight vignette and running it the main-guy through Topaz Adjust to make him pop - an act i'm sure John Cena would like to do to his head if he ever caught up with him.

This installation entitled “Unlimited Talk and Text” challenges us to face the reality of the times we live in. A 10ft (3m) paper mâchéd tree sculpted with pages from found phone books is reincarnated again to its natural posture reminding us of the past we once lived in while at the same time reminding us of the future that is ahead of us. The phonebook is no longer a necessity as technology advances us into a paperless society putting this species of ‘staple household items’ on the endangered list while the process of making these books also leads to putting species of trees, forests, habitats etc. on the endangered list as well.

This is my custom Jouwe for the Toy Art Gallery Custom Group Jouwe show, Oct 2nd - Nov 2nd, 2010. The piece is entitled "Nella sua Ombra che Svolgono", which translates to "In her Shadow we Play". Here's the backstory.
''Deep in the Forest of Sorrows lived a wood dryad named Solstice, who protected an accursed mirror that gave whomever was in possession of it eternal life & beauty, but at a terrible, horrible cost - death! For those would be so foolish to gaze into it would slowly wither and die, while bestowing Solstice with the essence of their souls to keep her young. Ever-so-vain and unyielding in her quest, Solstice would lure unknowing children into her tree, with promises of sarsaparilla floats, poutine and french fries, pinwheels, small cute animals and more, even providing a comfy bed to nap in after their fat little tummys were full. But one day, the tables were turned, when evil Solstice lured five sisters to her lair and took their poor souls while they huddled in the bed. For these girls were not just regular girls, they were five sisters who happened to be the daughters of the king - Princesses Aria, Lysette, Calliope, Daphne and Elysia. After the girls failed to return for dinner, the King immediately sent out a search party to find them and bring them home. But alas, it was not meant to be. For the search party discovered their trail, which led them to Solstice's tree, and lo and behold, a ghastly sight was awaiting - all 5 sisters were dead, huddled in bed, together forever with only brave Elysia's drawing upon the mirror letting them know that it was indeed them. Upon hearing this unbearably agonizing news, the King ordered that Solstice be chained and bound to her tree for eternity and left outside to the elements, where her coveted face would be exposed to nature's fury and that which she feared the most. Not wanting to disturb his precious daughters' eternal slumber, he left them there to lay in peace, where their spirits could play together forever.
Legend has it that Solstice's once-beautiful face is now cracked and worn, her visage now but a shadow of her former presence and if you happen to be there at night, you might catch a glimpse of the five long-dead princesses, playing by the moonlight.''
I used magic sculpt, super sculpey, metal, paper, styrene, craft porcelain, dried moss and acrylics.

Most of the above 160 Romanian women, in the best tradition of versatility, are true polymaths and therefore nearly each one of them falls in more than just one category, often three or more.

Roumanian, mezzo-soprano, french by naturalisation, she studied at the Bucarest Conservatory where, besides her vocal training, she also studied the piano, harmony and counterpoint. She was awarded the Kathleen Ferrier Prize and the gold medal in the International Georges Enesco Competion. Important roles were soon given to her and above all she is one of the greatest interpreters of Carmen. Her repertoire allows her to sing in Russian, from Glinka to Stravinsky, in German from Bach to Schönberg, in Italian from Monteverdi to Menotti, in French from Rameau to Ravel. She has appeared at the most prestigious opera houses : the Paris Opera, the Metropolitan in N.Y, the Scala in Milan, Covent Garden in London, the Vienna Opera, the Rome Opera and the Verona arenas.

WPA mural entitled "The Life and Times of General Israel Putnam", painted in 1935 by James H. Daugherty. It was originally painted for the Greenwich Town Hall. Prior to it's restoration in 1998 it had hung in the Hamilton Avenue School in Greenwich. However, the scenes depicted were deemed too "violent" for the children and after it's restoration in 1998 by Joseph Matteis, Jr, with funds from the Ruth W. Brown Foundation, it was hung in the Greenwich Public Library on Boston Post Rd (US Hwy 1).
Physical Description
Cotton bunting. Blue star in the center of white field; red border.
General History
The Man-in-Service Flag was used in both World War I and World War II. It is also known as the Blue Star Flag. Each family was entitled to hang a small Man-in-Service Flag in a window to signify they had a family member in service. The flag was about a foot long and was hung vertically. The blue star was covered with a gold (actually yellow) star if the family member died in action.

This piece is entitled "self portrait of ones entire life". I executed this piece with the a theory I developed that is called Dimensionalism . This theory has its inspiration form my experiences with pre-seizure events for I have epilepsy. In this state I become detached from reality and see time in a different construct,that of a hyper intensity. A hyper awareness of a moment and everything that constructs it from sounds,thoughts,things tactile . While in these pre seizure states, some instances time is slowed down/speed up or frozen. While in other instances I am forced away form all comprehension of what is in my present environment and reality takes on a totally foreign existence where all has to be re learned.
For the viewers of my piece all of life is in dimensions and how one moves through these dimensions of either large dimensional constructs such as ones life or to the minute dimensional construct of a simple word. Thus giving the viewer this new perspective of time and space. The suspended animation of the piece is only dynamic as the viewer views the piece from the narrower sides form either end where a visible play of time sequencing exists and ones eye is drawn into the piece...
A perspective of a Dimesionalist where one has a view of a moment with a gods eye/time traveler or a pure energy source . From looking at a simple word to a memory one has. All is captured in dimensions. There are other branches of my theory that further portray my experiences. Demensionalising and facitile dimensionalism. These ideas also play with the constructs of how one sees time/moment.I hope to execute these ideas in the future...........
All these ideas/theories have a direct correlation with present day society...from the over abundance of information that is transferred by different technologies to the ways these technologies directly affect our existence and how it adds other dimensions of time to our lives.
I will be placing more info online in the future. and creating a temp website that fully explains all the details and shows examples of these theories as well as go into more details..

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spindle_(shrub)
The spindles, genus Euonymus, comprise about 170-180 species of deciduous and evergreen shrubs and small trees. They live mostly in East Asia, including the Himalayas,[1] and they also have a distribution in Europe, Asia, Australasia, North America and Madagascar.
Mature Spindle fruit, after splitting open to reveal the seeds
The flowers are situated in small groups, inconspicuous and of green or yellow shades.[1] The leaves are opposite (rarely alternate) and simple ovoid, typically 2-15 cm long, and usually with a finely serrated margin.
The fruit is a pink-red four- or five- valved pod-like berry, which splits open to reveal the fleshy-coated orange seeds. The seeds are eaten by frugivorous birds, which digest the fleshy seed coat and disperse the seeds in their droppings. All parts of the plants are poisonous to humans if eaten.The wood was traditionally used for the making of spindles for spinning wool; this use is the origin of the English name of the shrubs.
Spindles are popular garden shrubs, grown for their foliage, the deciduous species often exhibiting very bright red fall colours, and also for the decorative berries

A hyper awareness of a moment and everything that constructs it from sounds,thoughts,things tactile . While in these pre seizure states, some instances time is slowed down/speed up or frozen. While in other instances I am forced away form all comprehension of what is in my present environment and reality takes on a totally foreign existence where all has to be re learned.
For the viewers of my piece all of life is in dimensions and how one moves through these dimensions of either large dimensional constructs such as ones life or to the minute dimensional construct of a simple word. Thus giving the viewer this new perspective of time and space. The suspended animation of the piece is only dynamic as the viewer views the piece from the narrower sides form either end where a visible play of time sequencing exists and ones eye is drawn into the piece...
A perspective of a Dimesionalist where one has a view of a moment with a gods eye/time traveler or a pure energy source . From looking at a simple word to a memory one has. All is captured in dimensions. There are other branches of my theory that further portray my experiences. Demensionalising and facitile dimensionalism. These ideas also play with the constructs of how one sees time/moment.I hope to execute these ideas in the future...........
All these ideas/theories have a direct correlation with present day society...from the over abundance of information that is transferred by different technologies to the ways these technologies directly affect our existence and how it adds other dimensions of time to our lives.
I will be placing more info online in the future. and creating a temp website that fully explains all the details and shows examples of these theories as well as go into more details..

An article entitled "Sea lions at Victoria's Race Rocks injured by debris, boats" just ran in Victoria's Times Colonist that quoted me. See it here: www.timescolonist.com/technology/lions+Victoria+Race+Rock...
Anna Hall, a marine zoologist also quoted in the article suggests showing graphic images to children to warn them of the dangers posed to sea lions. This series is a response to that suggestion and not biased propaganda as I have been accused of.
This image summarizes the article's headline. Two California sea lions, one with some marine junk entangled around its neck (a death sentence), and another whose front flipper has been nearly severed by a boat's propeller (it is currently wasting away from not being able to hunt for food).
An update from a NOAA research biologist and a veterinarian who specializes in marine mammals: Both experts agree the wound has been present for so long that the original source of the trauma is impossible to say with scientific certainty. Possible causes include orca bite, entanglement, and boat strike.
