Artist Statement: I started
reading The Recluse of Harold Square when my father was in ICU after a
heart attack. I had not planned on being there so long but he never woke up
after his bypass operation and days turned into weeks and weeks turned into
months so I needed something to read. After my dad passed away I did not want
to just return the book that had carried me through such a difficult time back
to a dusty old bookshelf so I decided to create art with it. A Story to Tell
is part of the artwork series I did using words only cut out of that special
book. The premise to the series is
that your life, just like the words and pages in the art can be rearranged. If
you change the pages you will get a new outcome and there by change your life.
We are not stuck on the path we are currently on. If you rearrange things or
the words or the way you see things in your life you will change your outcome
and your future. If you move the pages of the artwork you will create a new
story for yourself.
