Tell Me! ... a secret ...
interactive sound and video installation

"Tell Me! . . . a secret . . . " is built around two interactive sound and video installations which invite the viewer to become, quite literally, part of the art. The conception came from my desire to explore many different types of artistic expression, including theater, music, poetry, and composition. Through my acting studies in Berlin and the work with Ensemble für Intuitive Musik, I created multimedia performances incorporating dance, music, and image projection.
The photographs in "Tell Me! ... a secret ..." are inspired by one of those performances. However, they are not just memories of a previous work but an extension of it, a further realization through an interactive environment, one that invites the public to act, to listen, to be surprised.

"I believe that stimulating curiosity is one of the most important aspects of education, human interaction, and art. We have too many opportunities to remain on familiar ground...but what happens when a door opens and the space beyond does not resemble anything we knew before? Do we enter?

Through my travels to many continents and through my study of theatre, music, painting, photography, pottery, and computer programming, I continue to search for those doors into the unknown.
I hope to share this passion, and to put the visitor/listener/actor who experiences this sound and video installation into a sensitive and sensible space, which evokes memories, dreams, and a taste for the impossible."
