This is a formula that combines the abstract meaning of playing cards with Astrology and Numerology providing a birds-eye view of the never ending Law of Cause and Effect, otherwise known as Karma. Imaging being told you are no longer in control of your surroundings. You are a victim of circumstance and your reality is now out of your hands.

You have is the chance to embrace it or to let it destroy you. Your true character will let this game, we call life, play out one card at a time. My work shows the reaction all four queens in a card deck would have when told their reality is turned upside down. Their reaction is based upon character traits given to them by Metasymbology.

The cards are in your hands.

Does your vocabulary matter? Your ability to explain what you see or feel can influence anyone and anything. How we choose to react when we confront a vocabulary that we do not understand, for some, can create an irrational fear. When the wrong words are expressed or implied, in or out of context, they begin to make others feel uncomfortable in their own discourse.

For this series, Word Play, these images are capitalizing on a communication weakness with a visual strength. Creating photographic illustrations of words and phrases taken literally or simply the wrong way, to bring about the discomfort when used incorrectly. You're vocabulary reflects the way you think and having the conceptual tools to recognize correct vocabulary is a crucial ordinary life skill.

While we sleep trees are continually working to clear the air. They are creating what gives us life, oxygen, which is represented by the light surrounding the trees. it is something we take for granted but is all around us, and without it we would not be here.
