"Drift" was a yearlong, weekly routine/performance that enacted a pseudo-Darwinian model of variety and natural selection. Relationships between patterns, cognition, and improvisation were disrupted by choosing from the following prompts: • Elaborate on the previous week's work • Create the opposite of the previous week's work • Abandon the previous week's work The individual compositions within the installation constitute a species. The constraints of the prompts, time, medium, technique and size are heritable traits. Some compositions were duplicated with slight variations within a week's time while others never made it to paper. Everything in my world view is a subspace of something else. I take in the smaller things to know the larger. Love is the root-interval of my value system, and paper aligns well in my mind as a material that is humble, vulnerable, and fragile. I do not signify things that already exist in my work so I can see a thing as a discovery from my heart.
