The sixth sense







The sixth sense expands our sense of sight, hearing, smell, taste, and touch- giving a greater sense of perception as we interact with our environment.

Ephemeral, subliminal, veiled… highly personal… unseen, unheard, unfelt by others.

For this piece, I was interested in the shadows created by a light source as it was moved over the canopies. Photographing it added a mystery that wasn’t present during its creation. The process of moving the light around became rather spiritual in a way… soothing…calming…ritualistic...experiencing the sixth sense.
