   The moment of meeting one's self.  Inside of the self, next to the self, away from the self.  Coming and going, merging and moving. Each person chooses a place, a landscape, a street to walk, a location where one escapes, contemplates or finds simple pleasures. Four different people search these places in a solitary walk or action, blurring the point where one starts and where one ends, creating a path of self convergence.

   Exterior structure and interior space. 4 walls of poly fiber cording yarn create an interior and exterior sculpture, accessible and tactile. Dimensions 12ft x 12ft x 14ft high (variable). Framed with slotted angle metal bars and suspended by cable wire  four inches off the floor. 4 video projections of 4 separate people in 4 distinct environments each with ambient environmental sounds. Manipulated video of people merging into themselves, walking away and walking towards.
