Artist Statement
Waking Crow — wakingcrow.com
I am the light — defining my shadows.
Art is play.
Expressions are truths that shape meaning.
I consider the mundane as one with the sublime, beauty wears many masks.
I remove the you from your world, momentarily, to reveal a glimpse of who you are becoming, who you always were…
The embodiment of consciousness, standing in awe of this grand cathedral of life.
I descend and return, bringing forth light that once hid in shadows.
