DescriptionAn examination of my cross-disciplinary artistic practice that attempts to bring together Asian meditative disciplines with Western inquiry through visualizing social and physical statistics. As I explore the relationship between language and sensation, I use Charles Pierce's three referential modes: the iconic, indexical and symbol-symbol to view how humanity as come to understand the world through images, objects and rituals. Paralleling this investigation is a systems theory that attempts to visualize the fluidity of a non-discrete universe where social interaction correlates with the physical world.
