“SKIES”
Remember lying down on the grass as a child and gazing at the endlessly morphing clouds in the sky? We, and the world within which we live, are ever-changing, evolving and transmuting. When we take the time to really see and immerse ourselves in the natural world around us - the winds, trees, animals, stones, skies - we discover that everything is constantly changing and moving. The seasons and skies are ever altering in color and weather patterns.
I always look at the sky and think about the fact that no matter what's happening in our lives, where we are, or what sorrows and joys we experience, the sky is always creating this ever-changing and thrilling theater and constant drama. I also like that it belongs to everyone in the whole world equally; it's ours. The sky also has to do with light, and in different parts of the world, the light is so different and distinct.
If the land symbolizes the facts about our lives then the sky represents the future and the possibility of change.
I am fascinated by this ever changing color in the sky and like to express my fascination of the different skies in this third annual 50-50 show.
