Abstract
Fluid Experience reflects my reaction to research and practice of Buddhist-derived principals regarding fluidity and ever-changing aspects of human experience. My intent is to share with the viewer some of my own personal experiences of these philosophical tenets through capturing, manipulating, and drawing out fleeting moments. I use video combined with colored pencils in an abstract linear drawing process to create figuratively and architecturally ambiguous compositions, leaving many familiar details and real-life references intact. This may prompt a more thorough investigation of each piece, in an effort to seek out clues and implications of the subject matter. The works are subtle whispers of my personal life experiences, which are shared in a variety of forms by all human beings.
