Statement
To capture the bison on the walls of my cave. The proto-imaging of prehistoric cave artists (at the Altamira, Lascaux, and Chauvet sites--to name the ones I’ve looked at more closely in books or film) points to a phenomena, a recognition of shadow slipping between the world of what is there and what is not there. Seeing into that darkness and drawing on that light, they made “rock art.”
