When I think of myself as an artist, it is of one who looks: one who looks at things as big as the universe and as small as a dot, as near as the end of my nose and as distant as the horizon, but especially one who looks at looking. Science and technology have extended our information gathering abilities far beyond what our senses alone can provide, but at both ends of the spectrum, from the subatomic to the pan galactic, the mysteries remain, and though few appreciate it, the everyday world is permeated with the same mysteries. When we confront reality directly, we do so with only the tools provided us by nature. It is only in understanding these tools and how they shape our experience that we can begin to fathom the mysteries that surround us.
     Most of my work deals in one way or another with how visual perception, through its marvelous adaptations as well as its often unnoticed limitations, shapes our view of the spatio-temporal world and the seemingly concrete objects that reside there.
