A holon (Greek: ὅλον, holon neuter form of ὅλος, holos “whole”) is something that is simultaneously a whole and a part.

The creative process has always fascinated me. It is organic in nature, often unpredictable, exciting most of the time, and generous with its many challenges.

Not without a pioneer spirit can you venture into the unknown realms of your own imagination. Everything is possible there and nothing is off limits. As you conquer your challenges you are certain to be rewarded with surprising moments of insight.

Being a part of an infinite whole is the inspiration for these collages. Individual cells, images of people and things, the real and the imaginary, colors, textures and shapes come together to coexist happily, sometimes intricately, and form an alternative world of their own.

There is always a dialogue between the artists and their work. The magic happens when what was said during those moments of creation lingers silently like vapor waiting for someone to inhale the message.
