“B.C.”, the title of this group of works (2008–2011), alludes both to the historical era “Before Christ,” as well as to some less clearly defined time preceding a process or system of counting. My works all address concerns that touch upon culture, archeology, history, religion, and spirituality. Yet whereas in the past I examined overtly political subjects or current events, my present focus is on more implicit, covert forms of politics, and on a process of wandering that produces random encounters and surprises within a sphere that interests me in different ways.
