It all starts at a central point
A choice waits to be made.
Remain steadfast in one place or radiate in myriad directions.
Hold to tradition, yet see the world as never before.
The truth is hidden in plain sight.
We are all connected in unexpected ways.

It’s amazing how seeing his work in person is so different from viewing it in photographs. The message comes through so much louder and with more clarity. 🙂

It’s one of my favorite pieces. Not only is it something interesting to look at, but it’s amazing that not a single nail or glue was used to construct it.
