Vision From Both Sides - 9/11 Memorial Exhibition

Three groups of nine drawings were pinned to the gallery walls to replicate something of studio and their genesis. They had been pinned in groups to the cross bracing of large canvas stretchers as they found their place in the puzzle.

From the Studio Notes:
I am on a pilgrimage and keeping notes to help remember where I've been.
Somewhere along the way I spread the notes out ... a collage, a map, a puzzle.
video, paper, ink, crayons, words, paint
Not a picture puzzle, aiming at a destination.... more like archeology....
searching for meaning or, what new insight is contained in these fragements as
they reach out and link up, or butt heads in opposition with their neighbours?
What surprises are contained in new/unexpected juxtapositions?

Studio/Sketch Book Notes were attached to the wall adjacent the work that had brought the thoughts to mind. The work, being intuitive leads to ideas that sometime come through as words.
The work is not conceptual - illustrating an idea, nor does it stem from imagination.
