“My understanding of the importance of time and image as a form of material emerges as part of my interest in history and time and in understanding personal histories and those experiences of time as it passes. The loop in a work of video is an attempt to deny death by creating a moment that lasts “forever.” The consideration of space is well-tread in art; however, time and its representation have historically been less considered when figuring a piece of work. Time is an individual thing, and the experience of it, is something that no longer seems to be reflected in the media unless that media is very specifically attempting to recreate the past. There is an obsession within art, maybe, or maybe just within me when it comes time for art to be made: to make something new and different. As we get closer and closer to visual perfection on a presentational level, we lose time. The images in my work, now, even attempting to recall a different sort of image, cannot be taken separately from the time period in which they were made. Anything made using ever-evolving technology, must be open to being judged as a product of its times.”
