“To think is thus to test out.”
– Maurice Merleau Ponty

Our expectation is not always one that is correct and when questioned it provokes new ways of thinking and consideration of the world around us. Each play a role in how we experience the everyday object through a familiarity not registering the implicit constructs of form, colour, texture and ornamentation that act as conduits to engage us with of the object. However if these layers of content ,context and meaning are interrogated through a deconstruction in their reordering and in the process of reconstruction a new potential of the object can be revealed. The creative process is engaged and gives structure to a seemingly intuitive random response in arriving at new hybrids explored with the interplay of 2 and 3 dimension .

The costumes of Tibet are gorgeous and colorful, and the simplicity and kindness of Tibet girls are very attractive to me.
