Waterfall and A Matchstick (2003)
Thousands of particles in a constant state of rebirth and destruction, travelling from source to destination, the core to the outer reach, this constant brutal chemical oxidization ignites and illuminates the very air before us. The simple exchange symbolises so much, our lives are very much like the match stick, once lit, burn intensely for a few short seconds, and then burn and fade out. Thousands of excited sparks burn together in sequence and order, governed by the all powerful luminesing glow and energy, a raw and pure life force, the fundamental called existence, or belief of existence, that controls and judges the world. Always the same however altered by its own circumstances and surroundings, like the waterfall falling to earth – a self displacement, in a place where something can be broken down to a hundred thousand smaller and equal segments of the same – a fractional being. The waterfall follows the river channel, yet at the same time created it, in other words, destiny shapes itself – as cause has effect, and affect it cause continually – as the river flows.
