The pseudonym, 'scrapworm,' names an allegorical human perspective on witnessing the passage of time and figuratively identifies with subtle entanglements of living systems' dynamics. We are all really 'scrapworms', winding paths through the collective composts of time, thought, matter, space, society, culture, and the webbed associative implications of such concepts. We collect parts of the overwhelming sensory intellectual experience of external reality based on our uniquely personal aspects. We perceptively meander routes through such mental accumulations, each of us processing and creating uniquely 'new' things. At recent public events, some of my collaborators seem to have started identifying themselves with scrapworm beyond the surface idea of pseudonym.

Blurring borders between the real, the imaginary, and the symbolic; my art practice re-examines traditional existential concepts from various angles, creating layered 'nether space' open-metaphoric maps. As timeless and/or reflectively time-folding archives, the invented spaces, surfaces, and sculptures explore media, information, and visual culture as socio-psychological language and ethno-archeological artifact. I craft immersive scenarios that let the viewers make their own associative leaps of active participation.
