RESPIRITUALIZED MODERNISM.




I like to picture the future full of gardens! old parking lots filled with planned wildernesses. . . empty lots glassed in and left to become, once again, natural.

this image is from my latest body of work: everything disappears! it's an altered ad from a recent new york times magazine. inside a perfectly corporate piece of architecture, separated above the jungle. . .I made ghosts out of two suited professionals who gazed over their dominion, and also removed the tag line which was: Us & Them. . .

here are a few personalized definitions:

natural: (not unlike the word/concept --sacred)
that thing or space that has been untouched by human manipulation for a significant period of time.

supernatural that which is more than natural (the prefix-super means above and over, greater than, beyond, outside, transcending). . .and what, then is that? . . .high technology of an entirely beyond human nature.

spirituality: an individual's relationship to the unknown.
