The Journal

MIXED MEDIA / 2004-2005

Inspired by my own journals over the past 30 years, these works document questions I have asked of the I Ching (Book of Changes). The use of the I Ching accesses an ancient Chinese tradition, using a philosophical understanding of one’s position in relationship to a question posed and the relative environment. Revealing the trials and reflections of daily life, my work takes a look at journal keeping as an ongoing dialogue with oneself.

By way of this visual exploration, I seek to expose the commonality of the human experience; our search for answers and insight, as well as our blindness to personal failings.
