Life is propelled by a type of inertia which is the tendency of people to unconsciously act upon their past experiences and personal preferences in their daily affairs, thereby developing a circle of behavior. In the process of self-searching, one discovers an “Id Inertia,” essentially the creation of the “self,” determined by this cycle of habitual and somewhat predictable thoughts and behaviors. Transcending this cycle requires self-reflection. Through a deeper perception, one analyzes the creative inertia of one’s being. And just as a plant bursts forth from a seed to start a new life, introspection brings transformation. In this work, the artist uses the creative medium of clay as a language to reconstruct the relationship between objects and the self with the objective of freeing oneself from the material constraints of life through self-awareness.
