“As I Lay Me Down to Sleep” is a new, ongoing series of photos, sculptures and paintings that are a response to visualizations that come to me just as I am falling asleep. I say “response” because while the images that arise are inspirational, fidelity to the subconscious is impossible in light of day as one must also rely on one's methodology as an artist. Not surprisingly, the result manifests as evidence of a neurosis.
