There is an idea that not only the physical things around us like a chair or a car are objects. It is now seen that also the actions taken by human beings have become objects in themselves. We as a society are slowly but surely dissecting the human body into bite size chunks. This is so that we as human beings are able to cope with the treatment that we inflict on ourselves and each other. A film example of this is the "Third Man" where Orson Wells shows Joseph Cotton the human dots from the giant Vienna wheel and puts this question to Joseph.
"If I paid you ten pounds for each dot that stopped and disappeared, how many dots would you sacrifice?"

It is easy to see how people who have lost or never gained insight into the living things around them, and as a result can put more importance into the objects they have or want to have, and those people can easily lose touch with the perception of themselves or the living things around them which leads to treating all things as objects.

Too much is lost by the fear of ownership and too little is gained by the love of owning.

The objects that I isolate or combine within my work are not for ownership. They are symbols to an inner feeling of lost connections, a way of trying to express the ideas that lie between the living and the object. A kind of spiritual world but with out the need of being connected to one ideology or belief. It is true that my leanings are towards Buddhism, but I know that Gautama was a man not a god and that his greatness comes from his insights and not from worshipping him.

Worship not the object, but follow the insight of life.

When asked to sum up what his teachings meant Buddha said "awareness"
