This is a creative archive - a record of work, observation, and making.

​

Cognitive respite is the thread.

​

The idea that a space, an image, or an object can give the mind somewhere to rest.

​

A frame does this literally: what was once a three-dimensional world becomes a considered composition.

The eye is no longer navigating a world; it is receiving an interpretation of one through the eyes of the artist displaying it.

​

That is where the respite happens: in seeing something that has already done the work of noticing for you.

​

Without it, what separates the image from the scene itself?
