Several cues had led me to begin thinking vaguely about Anselm Kiefer. My mind wandered to a recollection of Book with Wings. It’s funny but now, when I think of other artists, my next move is often toward Trespass, my long distance visual collaboration with Ian Gamache. I looked in on Ian’s work for inspiration and the first image that I saw was a wonderfully altered Still Life with Bible that originated from van Gogh. “The Fold,” is a visual representation of the lines that are drawn through life connecting random thoughts to natural reason.
