Its about investing in things that do not promise a return.  It is a futile effort. An impossible task. It is about learning endless lessons. About sleeping less, and dreaming more. About letting birds be birds, and encouraging them to fly. Its about being intentional. Embracing imperfections. It is about the handmade. It is about the truth. It is idealistic. Its about little drawings, and letterpress prints. Its about circles in nature. Its about everyone being everything. I hope you enjoy it.’

David Mazure: Artist Statement

The universe is in a constant state of flux. Nothing is static. Everything is moving, changing, transforming from the tiniest quark to the largest supercluster. The universe cares not the size of the elements that exist within it for they are all interdependent upon one another for their very survival. This interdependency is apparent when, upon close scrutiny, patterns begin to emerge. This modularity reveals a similarity between the microcosmic and macrocosmic facets of the universe; an infinite, interdependent loop of space and time.

Just as there is an order to the universe, so must there be a logical reason for every decision made in my creation process, from the medium, to the imagery, to its inevitable display. I am not devoted to any one medium in particular and often find that a mix of traditional and new technologies will achieve my desired goals. Choice of medium is dependent upon my message. Herein lies one of my most formidable challenges; how to unite the medium and message to strengthen one another.

My investigation into the inner-workings of the universe begins with a response to forms in nature. At this stage of my development I am focusing on transformations of human forms. Somewhere between observation and imagination, my mutated human forms emerge as language. A language that is strengthened by the experiential quality of how each work is displayed. Created specifically with the viewer in mind, each installation establishes an aura of questioning that operates in both the physical and mental spaces between the viewer and the work. The entire phenomenological experience transcends the purely narrative and triggers associations of cosmological importance.

My work challenges established belief systems through a theosophic integration of science, art and philosophy. Through a unification of image and installation, I attempt to initiate a cerebral awareness of the concealed gestalt of the universe; the unknown, unexpected and unfathomed concepts of space and time. Teetering on the edge of two abysses, one of hope and one of meaninglessness, my work aims to transcend inward and outward beyond the scope of both.
