Nothing is too wonderful to be true
ALL THIS IS A DREAM. Still examine it by a few experiments. Nothing is too wonderful to be true, if it be consistent with the laws of nature; and in such things as these experiment is the best test of such consistency. - Michael Faraday
The Loop
a Spiral joined at the top. Bath lime stone, 2010
- This piece forms the third part of the theme of the Dual Form; a form I have been exploring for the last few years. Here the two forms become joined at the top. The letter S is contained within this form, and the piece has a strong letter based feel to it. The twisting nature of this piece echos forms of the Caduceus
I drank water
What was in that candle’s light
that opened and consumed me so quickly?
Come back, my friend. The form of our love
is not a created form.
Nothing can help me but that beauty.
There was a dawn I remember
when my soul heard something from your soul.
I drank water from your spring
and felt the current take me.
