There is an inter- connectedness to all life that is possible to experience firsthand, altering our perceptions as it both wounds and delights. The spiral in my work presents itself as the perfect tool to illustrate this unity. Each rotation flowing outward and embracing the next while it increases in depth. It both envelops and resides in images that never quite solidify, symbolizing altered states and the inexplicable connection between time periods, events and life forms. It represents for me what could be a new and authentic engagement with life and a promise for the future. Kathleen Pepicello

We must assume our existence
as broadly as we in anyway
can; everything, even the
unheard of, must be possible
in it. This is at bottom the
only courage that is demanded
of us, to have courage for the
most strange, the most
inexplicable.
Rainer Maria Rilke
The world thus appears as a
complicated tissue of events,
in which connections of
different kinds alternate or
overlap or combine, and
thereby determine the texture
of the whole.
Werner Heisenberg
If I let go of the notion of my
individuality, then it's
endless. I suffer when others
suffer, I learn from the
mistakes other people make.
I see myself as a midwife to
an emergent consciousness. I
stand at the gate reaching
both ways. With the
simplest relaxation, I can be
in complete gratitude, and
the next moment I can feel
my heart break.
