About

 MELTING REALITY ART 

inspired by progressive rock, the history of visual art
and the endless possibilities of the blending tool

I melt reality
to dilute the past
while pondering
the deepest mysteries
of the gnocchi

 THE PROCESS 

I collect samples and fragments of solid reality,
carefully melt them down one by one,
layer and blend recollections old and new together
to fix the condensed matter in a new solid state —
a translucent compound of the past, present and future.

Memories dissolve much like metal in a furnace,
allowing for layers upon layers being set with excruciating detail
in the manner of delicate yet poignant visual lace work.
