You Are the Portal -- Series A body is the first thing we see. It is beautiful, but it is only the vessel. Across these three pieces, the figure's face gives way to a tangle of lines: thoughts, memories, questions, and the inner life no one can fully see from the outside. Each view asks us to look beyond her appearance and consider the soul experiencing life through that body. You Are the Portal is about the observer within us and the world we carry within our minds. The portal is not somewhere we need to find. It is already here. I. The Observer 8.5x11 in. print, hand-finished with gold leaf Seen from behind, she cannot meet our gaze. We are left to imagine what she sees, thinks, and feels. The Observer turns attention toward the awareness within the body: the part of us that notices a thought, feels an emotion, and witnesses life as it unfolds. The gold arc surrounds the figure like an opening, while the lines above her remind us that an inner world remains behind anyone else's view. x Portal Pursuit
