Inescapable Moments


 

From outside we can see it all. Crumbling and wandering, houses in stages of forgetting, some still clinging to life and function, others wandering off into the chaotic universe awaiting their demise or transformation. They all dream as they fade, and we fade with them.

Small moments linger in the meandering edges of time and space. Crawling shivering viral houslets step out of the tumult tentatively, skittering and exploring. They wander out of their former home, hoping to transplant their warped consciousness into a new host in order to remake their existence and become part of someone else’s history. Made from discarded packaging, glue, wire, and acrylic mediums each piece of the Inescapable Moment series has its own personality and exists as the tangible refraction of a tiny memory that attempts to escape its owner, perhaps seeking to infest/infect another.
