Inner space (nerve landscapes)

To be in closer touch with what’s going on within, I draw my nerves at their tiniest endpoints, at the very places where feeling is being felt, or movement initiated.  It’s at this level of scale that the floating colors imagery most closely echoes the forms of nature.  Like a lens where the eye of imagination can be refocused, the dense drops open to reveal their inner structure ….  an opening of vision into the smallness and subtlety of inner space. 

For someone whose physical life is constricted and whose range in the world is limited, this sense of an inward opening is wonderfully liberating.  Inside my body I find a world I can marvel at and never get to the end of, a cosmos of infinitely unfolding detail.
