“There is a place in one’s consciousness where observation, memory and imagination act as a metaphorical explanation for understanding the beauty of the natural world. Our realization of our own significance is put into perspective as we place ourselves into the mixture of light and shadow, form and current, obstacle and pathway. There is an element of timelessness found in a moment of high perception and awareness as well as in the circular nature of time that I often try to delineate. Reflecting upon the elements of our sensual experiences in moments of awareness or reflecting on the memory of ones’ collective imagination presents an assemblage of significant signs that form a visual language. This language appears to me as a combination of gesture, movement, color and form that when read together recall the significance of experience, the importance of observation and the power of memory. When gesture and color meet the current of experience, the poetic language of the visual symbol emerges.” Mary Ann Kelly
