artist.  1.  one who recognizes that he lives within infinitely many possibilities and yet chooses to make new choices in the face of this, allowing him to                   create something individual and finite.  

​

           2.  one who sifts through the material and spiritual world, hoping to lay hold of its primal elements.

​

​

 

visual artist.  one who learns about the world’s nature and materials by playing with them, rather than naming and categorizing them as is done in                                   science.  

 

​

​

sculptor.  one who plays with physicality, form, and time, attempting to make sense of the elements and boundaries that he has found himself born into.

​

​

 

sculpture.  an immobile morsel of space and time left behind by one who finds himself forever propelled into a mobile future.

​
