Biography
The human body is a device. A courier and means of transportation for thought and imagination. We mimic, follow, and remember. Copy and remix. What is invented is not only a product of the process inside us which surfaces the skin to continue on, but what sinks in as we sift through our surroundings. We carry our surroundings with us, move, disturb, and re-invent the objectives of the space, and create our own. With all senses and subconcious abilities, mistakes, decision and accident, we randomly re-visit our past, and twist our own path.
One moment can change every aspect of a situation, and much so, our lives. A single word can change the mood of a stranger, and a smell can remind us of things we have long forgotten. As we travel through life, we forget much of our experience, but the body becomes full of landmarks, scars, and weaknesses, reflecting the space we mark, scar, and weaken.
