chaos + consistency

Part of my process has to do with taking an existing paradigm or practice and approaching it with the question, "What would happen if I did this?" Standing an assumption off its center creates new perspective. Ideas that might have seemed rigid suddenly expand.

I am interested in ways that patterns degenerate and reconstitute themselves. Gyorgy Doczi's The Power of Limits suggests that there is a kind of latent expansiveness connecting many elements in nature through pattern and proportional relationships. Consistency appears out of chaos.

Exposing this tension was the goal of this proposal sketch for Steen Bomen (Stone Trees): it indicates past labor and persistent growth, along with the improbability and joy of linking them together.
