"Turning 60; I:18 (work in progress)incorporates several themes: my recent birthday and the number of years I am, getting back into the studio after a long hiatus, a celebration of being able to stand and turn, the essence of home and the simple things it contains. An element of spoof exists for me in the reference to videotapes and step-by-step instructions of turning projects devoid of emotional content."
