The changing of epochs is kindred to the natural disasters — it can be just as fierce as the tectonic shifts, eruptions, or engulfing-all tsunamis. In time, the waters will recede, the ground will be still once more, and pools of molten lava will become enduring boulders — Earth’s gashing scars will heal, new ecosystems will emerge, the gardens once again will bloom, and nations will beget surfeits of sons and daughters.

Merging with the Garden
TriBeCa, New York 2024
I see this project as poetry. This allows me the liberty to interpret artworks featured in this project, and a freedom from claim as to the accuracy of my interpretations. While being one of the creators of this garden and an integral part of it, I, at the same time, am an outside observer, the same as anyone who enters its grounds.
The Time Capsule – a Golden Record
TriBeCa, New York 2024
What a pleasure it is to be able to just drift your thoughts away from this planet. To travel across time and space, where there are no feelings, no pain, no good, no evil – nothing but cold, eternal beauty. There is the Sun, and in its radiant light, a pale blue dot. This is our Earth. Here is our home on Earth. And our home is burning.
How can we, people on Earth, communicate and pass experience to each other? How can we prevent our history from repeating itself?
A Time Capsule or Golden Record art show invites its viewers to embark on a deep philosophical journey about light and darkness, life and death, good and evil. This project is a golden record of human experience sent across the endless space in search of a contact.
