Fluxus Box

Fluxus Box: Foam board, masking tape & spray paint 23.5"x 3.5" Artist Statement My Fluxus Box was inspired by the movie The Matrix. The Box itself is made up of smaller boxes stacked up over each other to represent pixels in computers. The smaller boxes are stacked unevenly to represent a glitch in a computer or in the matrix.

After all, the hand is action, it digs roads and builds cities, it throws spears and diaper babies." Diane Ackerman, A Natural History of the Senses pg 116 Our hands play such an important role in our lives. They get us ready in the morning, they open the door so we can walk outside into our lives. This piece is supposed to demonstrate the raft of time seen through the hands. There are layers of photos from my childhood that can be seen inside my hands.
