For millennia, people have gazed into the night sky. The relatively recent modernization of our planet has deprived many of us from that experience.
The artwork is intended to invite the viewer into their own personal universe. A place where they can dream, wonder and reflect upon themselves.
Each piece reconnects the viewer with the awe of the universe while simultaneously reconnecting the viewer with themselves.
The source of light behind each artwork is intended not to be seen as it symbolizes both the divine and the scientific, representing faith and our expanding universe.
The highly reflective surface of each piece draws the viewer into their own universe, inviting them to reflect upon themselves.
In the "Love is Universal" series, the shifting heart asks the viewer to reflect on how love has changed throughout their life.
The experience shifts when viewing the pieces in light or in darkness. While viewing the pieces in light, the highly reflective surface turns the piece inward making the art about the viewer. When viewed in darkness the artwork transforms into a philosophical reflection of the universe.
Whether viewing in light or in darkness, each piece invites the viewer on a journey connecting their personal reflection with the universe.
