"Like an archeological dig, objects below the surface eventually reveal themselves - sometimes crude and unfamiliar in appearance. Interpreting experiences that have permeated and become part of the human condition has been a constant in my work. Shapes emerge and perish almost simultaneously within their environment, and this revealing does not come easy.What remains from this exhaustive struggle are unsettled and irreducible forms that fought for existence.This tearing down of the figure is when I begin to see truth.” -Henry Jackson
