WE THINK THOUGHTS EVERY DAY

Thoughts are the materials we use to build the stories of our lives. To build our realities. Yet, often we can become overwhelmed by our thoughts. We hurt others with our thoughts. We hurt ourselves with our thoughts. It's sometimes like having a superpower but without the proper guidance on how to use it.

 

My art practice Roomforthoughts began in 1998 with one burning question: ‘What is a thought?’ And its associated sub-questions: How does a thought grow? How does it behave? What are its patterns? How do thoughts trap us? How to navigate inner thought storms?

 

Understanding the physics of thought became my life's purpose. The list of questions seem endless; What is the power of a repeated thought? How to break through thought programming? How to make a thought stronger?

 

This grew into an eclectic practice that investigates how thoughts construct mental and physical realities of ourselves and of others...but also investigates how to give visualization to a personal inner thought process that influences our (mental)health. My favourite project is #OriginalThought

 

Sometimes these question-based projects take me on a thought tangent! An interesting life to live, but also one that has helped me to help others.
