“I am happiest when I am singing.

When I meditate, I chant.

Singing, chanting – my brain quiets down.

My joy rises.

Making these pictures, something similar happens to me:

I get out of my mind.

I go into my senses.

I connect with my intuition.

I don’t think; I respond.

The world hums.

I vibrate.

The pictures sing.

We exist somewhere in between – everything and nothing.”

The images in my series Liminal may at first appear to be simple squares of various blue hues. Upon closer inspection, they reveal depths of subtle gradation. Whether captured or created, these images often inspire curiosity or questions. They are the results of walking meditations with my camera. Shared as glowing sculptural squares on a wall, and as rich pages of a special book, they are an invitation to pause and reflect on both what surrounds us and fills us.
