“My art concerns itself with the point of interaction between spirit and the real world. That interaction I would call the definition of narrative. The intersection of awareness information and intent.

The dramas we act out, the battles we fight, and the aesthetics we see are almost purely symbolic since the present reality is always the cumulative dramatics of a world that is much deeper and fraught with history than we could ever take into consideration.

My contention is that all art is narrative, and all narrative is myth – in the non-cynical sense.”
