“Billions of years ago, you were a big bang, but now you're a complicated human being. And then we cut ourselves off, and don't feel that we're still the big bang. But you are. Depends how you define yourself.” 

- Alan Watts 

For We Love the World So Much is the unification of two ghost monuments- one stone, heavy yet floating above the ground, disconnected from its roots. The monument within echoes ancient sites of ritual practice in its stone form - Stonehenge, Newgrange, Intihuatana. The other is imposing in size and shaped as a monolith, yet is only made of a thin membrane - representative of the thin veil that separates us from our ritualistic origins and the unseeable but ever-present web of interconnections that arises from the shared origins of everything in the known universe.

My work explores universal constants and the interdependency of all, along with a spiritual understanding of life and the world. From the beginning of humanity, we have made sense of the world and our unique experience of it through ritual and myth. My belief is that the rapid acceleration of global society has broken us from our ancestral universal mythos, and left us without spiritual understanding. Interdependence, interconnectedness, and shared origins are unquestionable truths, and this is the foundation of the spirituality imbued into my work. The spiritualities available to us are gated, exclusive, and often in conflict with themselves. For We Love The World So Much is a monument to ritual, the power of belief, and the healing it can bring to humanity.
