Electric circuitry,
an extension of
the
central
nervous
system.
Media, by altering the environment, evoke in us unique ratios of sense perceptions. The extension of any one sense alters the way we think and act - the way we perceive the world
when
these
ratios
change,
men change.

Cognizance is an ongoing series of three dimensional collages which explore the effects of altering our known reality. Made from a mix of found imagery, objects, hand-drawn/painted elements, these floating situations capture moments of reassessment in an invisible environment. Oscillating between three worlds—dream, reality, and memory—the subjects are trapped in space and confined by the borders of the page as they transform.
