| My background is eclectic in that I have considered my formal education as work and the various jobs
I've had as primarily educational. My interest is centered in communication. It was with that in mind that
I studied English and linguistics in college until I realized that verbal communiction is a wonderful tool for
communicating on some levels, but that it is woefully inadequate for imparting meaning on other levels. For example,
every part of a sailboat and evey action pertaining to each has a specific nomenclature without which succesful sailing
would be nearly impossible. However, to communicate the impressions; abstract concepts; thoughts pertaining to the subjective,
intimate processes that are actually the more essential aspects of our personalities, language fails. For that reason I have come
to rely on art to attempt to show what I think and feel about that which is verbally inexpressible. |
