Statement about AOAP Submitted Artwork
By imposing our own meaning onto the absurdity of time, we can circumvent the anguish created by it. In a state of suspended time, we are more free to invent. These works that do not make a division between words and text are also designed to go beyond the clock, loosen its mind-screw and take a leap out of my recent poetry publication, Surrealist Poems About Clocks.
