These large works on paper are considerations of continuity, disruption and perception - all pertinent issues of an unsettled age of information and disinformation. Dissimilar entities, organic and geometric, intersect and coexist - but not without tension. Relying on unreliable senses, the mind is wired to leap to conclusions. When perception shifts, ambiguity can be recognized and better accepted. Living with unknowns may be uneasy, but still preferable over fallacies or sweet lies.
