LOCATED IN SWEENEY GALLERY (THIRD FLOOR)
Artist Statement
Limen may pertain to the sill of a doorway, the threshold itself, or the point at which a stimulus
produces a physiological or psychological response. It marks a boundary of perception. The
thresholds presented here explore feelings of liminality, and loss. Things emerge and divide,
crystalize in time, accrete, stratify, and dissolve. Sometimes they just burn. I see in these
material states of transformation a way to discuss inner experience, but I also see them as the
life expressions of the immanent world. Processing charcoal at home has become a way for me
to reflect on these subjects in a direct and personal manner.
