Constructing an apparatus that provides the conditions for the work to exist.

 

My work has two foundations. The first is a form of flat ontology, in which everything I posit as real is equal in status and eligibility. The second is chance, understood as a motor of event and encounter. It follows that there are no privileged subjects, materials, sites, or processes.

Each work takes the form of a delicate collision of events, neither reducible nor predictable. Collision is not understood as violence or loss of energy, but as a change of state: through transformation, distortion, juxtaposition, contamination, and redefinition, processes that follow from the absence of prior negotiation.

The contingent consequences of these encounters are accepted over the orthodoxies of style, authorship, or taste.The aim is to establish that this mechanism of collision produces an emergent third event: neither an autonomous object nor a static commentary, but a situation or field defined not by what it is, but by what it might become.

The work and the space choose each other. The performance is neither dictated by the site nor independent of it. The event occurs, gathers conditions and awaits further occasions.
