ABOUT ME

‎"...to use the order of words to try to explain life is really as clumsy an operation as trying to drink water with a fork." --- Alan Watts (What is Tao)

I love getting to know people one on one best, both discoursing about and engaging the depths of the soul in everyday life.Still, I love big groups and usually find myself walking at the head of the pack... a real Aries in alot of ways. Metaphors are my way usually, I see in them and speak in them, and sometimes hide behind them.
I am the first in the family to get a four year degree, which several are coming up behind me now, really soon. But...it took me several different majors before I took the leap to fully engage my creative nature and become and art major. Over the last three years I feel like I have personally and naturally progressed through art history in my practice up to the point where I am currently which is interactive site-based installations
or sculptures that are now accompanied by performative ritual. (If that makes any sense) Which can mean anything as a material really. But I am mostly interested in exploring infinity, choice, and ritual. I have no idea where this is going to take me. All that is certain is that I wont be able to do it alone, I thrive off of collaboration. I not to take life and art seriously, but I do take my role and my work seriously or at least I want it to be good in the end so I can die happily.
I love my family, but dont spend enough time with them.
I have loved a few women, and I miss them all at once at some points.
The void of life is pushing and pulling me to reach further and further for truth, relentlessly, Well, not completely ceaselessly... For some moments, when I open my eyes and stop thinking, I am face to face with 'The Beatific Vision', so to speak,
I like to be on the move, but I'm easy going.

PHILOSOPHY

I am a diamond. Darkness, pressure, and heat make me grown larger and clearer. I am constantly working at refining a process of making a life that is art itself. This thing, with infinite facets has no dichotomy really, only unity.

音乐、电影和书籍

Like any sane person I enjoy a good film, book, or song. However I never seek new ones out. These are phenomenons that find me by surprise.

Movies: Not too often do I watch a movie. I like films that, like any good art, asks more questions than gives answers. My favorite is "The Sacrifice" -Andrei Tarkovsky
Music: I love ALOT of music. I run pandora and spotify, listen to the radio to check out new stuff and tag it to play my entire favorites list on shuffle.

Books: This is where I get my practical. I enjoy non-fiction writing from any field that ties the work to the core of life. IDK what that means. Ive spent plenty of time in philosophy and religion and am working on my contemporary art and art history knowledge...prepping for grad school.
