Jelly and Sugar 2

2004

The work represents a new creature with an independent life.  On the scaffolding—a spinal column suggesting the life we live today—is cast the flexible material jelly.  The unpredictable but joy-bringing substance projects a life comprised of a progressive spirit, an efficient will and independent morals.  As with any new form there arise new values.  The form of new energy enters the competition of survival among material objects.  Along with other existing objects the species has arrived in a chain of Darwinian selection, chosen for this moment and providing hope for this time.  It passes its genetic blueprint to its progeny, and through competition with other art works is part of a process that results in cultural peaks.
