The manner of my work is in the physical shaping of it, and in it, manner-ism, a bodily shaping of visceral thought, thinking as touch, and  tactile vision. What arises as surface reveals itself as depth, and the self as a fractal thing; the look of a thing is a need in the maker.

Questions of Style and Taste, so disparaged as signs of the trivial, the superficial, go to the heart of the matter, to the self as an autonomic function.
