back story: I used to work with a man Paul, he was in his late 50s. He would purchase storage lockers from all around the US. My job was to sort through things and list stuff online. One time there was a locker he acquired that had been previously owned by an office or hotel or something based on the box's left over. There were keyboards, a few computers, a mouse, etc. Normal stuff. The locker was from Michigan. The owner of the stuff allegedly passed away so it went to auction. One of the last box's was personal stuff, nothing unusual. However, there was an old camera, and an envelope. Inside the envelope were photographs, some of which were very strange. One of them showed a pumpkin patch with a bunch of dead rabbits. Another showed a hotel room with all the lights off except the t.v. Another was the persons car that was covered in garbage everywhere, the floor, seats, dash etc. One of the photographs was this pool. I showed Paul but he was a bit disquieted and told me to "chuck em' ". But I decided to hold onto the photos anyways, and uploaded them to my computer. I ended up losing the computer, but I had sent the photo's over to a friend so I got them back.

Each individual piece is based on words that are then turned into an unbroken, interwoven line. Each word is carefully chosen and influences the shape in mind. The design is initially hand drawn, then recreated in a design program, then digitally distorts the image to create an optical illusion within the design, which afterwords is cut out using a CNC laser machine. The piece is then worked on using hand chisels, painted and finished.

One of the most prominent examples of sacred geometry in this body of work is the 2024 sculpture, Gnosis. This piece features a large pyramid structure made of pine and acrylic mirrors, creating an "infinity mirror" effect that symbolizes a self-referencing "karmic loop." The artist’s broader practice consistently utilizes a single, continuous interwoven line to represent the conscious life cycle and the flow of time. By blending elements of traditional knotwork with modern minimalism and mathematical precision, these sculptures transform physical wood and mirrors into visual mazes that explore the balance of existence.

Each individual piece is based on words that are then turned into an unbroken, interwoven line. Each word is carefully chosen and influences the shape in mind. He describes our existence as navigating a constant labyrinth of pathways, much like the view from a helicopter looking down at a city where these routes span across the entire continent. He contrasts this with the 'micro' daily loops of an animal or human leaving and returning home, which mirrors the 'macro' arc of an entire human life that weaves through time and space. His artistic practice, which he calls 'apath,' focuses on mapping these interwoven human experiences into a singular, structured line that visually represents our movement through the world

Each piece is based on words that are transformed into an unbroken, interwoven line. Every word is carefully chosen to influence the final shape. The design is initially hand-drawn, then recreated in a digital program and distorted to create an optical illusion. Finally, the piece is cut using a CNC laser machine before being hand-chiselled, painted, and finished.
