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.
