So I set out to make a very long, tapestry-like piece. One that would appear to run right to left, top to bottom as if it was telling a story. It's inspired by a documentary about deciphering the Mayan language, in which the investigators around the turn-of-the-century copied down thousands of mayan symbols in long lines and columns from monumental rock faces. The symbols, which remained unreadable for hundreds of years after the collapse of the culture, retained a brilliant sophistication and detail that both baffled and amazed archeologists. This piece is based on those ideas. The creation of a story through symbols, colors, or pattern which may not be able to be directly understood, but obtains an overall universal beauty and elegance that gave it its power to begin with.

Then, I decide to play with it a bit and came up with some interesting and dramatic photos. Nothing spectacular but it does bring to mind some possibilities for future pieces while creating an interesting effect. Could be very cool to get a number of these going, set up and interacting with each other in some sort of sculpture or installation.
