WHY

Why Cubist?
Cubism depicts things from multiple viewpoints at one time, placing the viewer in motion. Objects are examined from all sides and broken down into their most basic elements: lines and the angles they make.

In Cubism, vision is organized conceptually; thinking leads seeing through the dark.

 A Cubist image looks flat but depicts, at the same time, a 3-D world. It can carry more information than an illustration or a photograph.

Cubism is about how we look at things more than than how things look.

Why Hearts?
I'd had a history of rapid and irregular heartbeats (atrial fibrillation and tachycardia) for a long time. Eventually I had a procedure to stop them.

Just before my cardiac ablation, a friendly face put my body into a large loud machine and released radioactive contrast material into my bloodstream.

I shivered in the dark while a map of my heart made of light tumbled in space.
