Cairns: A Personal Journey
I am interested in markers or objects that symbolize important places or the passage of time in our
lives. In ancient Britain people left piles of rocks or markers called cairns. Though the exact meaning
of the original cairns is not clearly known the work has come to mean markers used by surveyors as
well as stacks of rocks left by hikers to mark a trail. My cairns record my personal journey and
experiences.
My earlier training in architecture has had a lasting influence on my use of forms and space.
Fragments from architectonic, man made objects, are used like fossils and are juxtaposed to natural
forms indicating a continuous cycle of decay and rebirth.
A sabbatical to Taiwan and trips to Japan, Korea, and Thailand have shown their influence on my
work. I encountered many examples of folk furniture and architecture. The universal nature of some
of the furniture and its similarity to western examples fascinates me. They are markers or cairns left
by the cultures that made them. These images are creeping into my work.
My cairns are charged with many emotions but ultimately are markers of the human condition on our
fragile planet.
