The images here examine the madeness of our perception and of our physical and conceptual worlds themselves. They question why we recognize neither this pervasive madeness nor its impacts on our understanding. The images you are seeing seek to prompt immediate consideration and longer term self-reflection as makers of the new. They foreground the interplay of the multiple meanings of forging, from making to misleading to leading forward, as an ever-present context for understanding the nature and the limitations of that understanding.
