ARTIST STATEMENT
The title of this work comes from a statement I wrote in a jotter the night before I got married. By using a reflective surface to display my handwriting, I am inviting others to look into the mirror and relate to my very personal message. It reads, "For the First Time in my Life the Future is more Important than the Past." I am speaking about the past and the future, but the reflection always shows the present.
EXHIBITIONS
This work was exhibited as part of the group show, #IRL: In Real Life at Arnold and Sheila Aronson Galleries at Parsons School of Design, 14 August–11 September, 2014. Supporting images (see above) were taken by various viewers at the Opening Reception and posted on social media.
