The works revolve around situations in which beings attempt to maintain themselves. They become absorbed in ordinary actions and seemingly insignificant gestures that gradually begin to shape the situations they inhabit. They adapt, persist and quietly continue, often not seeming to notice what their actions cause.
The shift settles in quietly.
The figures are neither victims nor heroes. They persist. They rarely resist. Without any drama they continue to be part of the systems they helped create, even after those systems have grown beyond them and start to work against them.
