“There is no way I can squeeze the enormousness of myself back inside this tiny little body.”
– Jill Bolte Taylor

“See Without Seeing and Know Without Knowing” is an installation of ethereal paintings that considers that we, as living beings, are energy bodies made up of small, moving particles, which exist without edges or boundaries. The paintings expand upon the idea that the world we know is not made up of separate solid objects, but rather a universe of infinite and interconnected particles of energy. The paintings, like portals into another dimension, remind us that the nature of the Self is far greater than the experience of the physical body.

THIS EVENT IS FREE AND OPEN TO THE PUBLIC
