Gordian Knot
The train clamor awoke me with a shutter. I watch the flashing of indigo lights like lightning storming through swollen eyelids; black, blue, black, and blue. A familiar spirit in the distance I recognize, but cannot place, as a specters’ ramblings can be heard; momentarily jolting my mind out of a blur of depression. This depression lingers like sullen fog circling an abandoned bridge; suspending water droplets while obscuring my clarity. My stubby fingers can't be seen held out in front of me, years can't be seen either.

Kirie
With precise animation, I permanently (with confidence) slice through matte sheets of 160g watercolor paper. Sometimes rice paper, or recycled newspapers, an old journal, or those free car magazines shelved on the sidewalk. Most often I prefer paper torn from a retired (painting and I are currently at an impasse) sketch pad. The art of paper cutting in Japan is known as “Kirie”. This is my ruling passion.
