Security/Afterlife 1999.

size varies with installation.
Spotlights on the floor shine light onto the reflective surfaces on the ceiling where it bounces back onto the floor and walls as pools of light. Meant to look like a stage scene where light is shining through the trees, the pools of light entice the viewer to explore the space, to stand in the lighted areas and go between them. It is a metaphor for life's experiences, where one is attracted by the shining opportunities in life, only to discover these destinations (or goals) leaves one questioning, "O.K. I've gotten to this point, now what?" Life is full of high and lows, bright spots and dark moments, so have many goals in life because one never knows which ones will be more than a flash in the pan. Enjoy all aspects and experiences in life because they are all enriching.
