Here's some things I'm thinking about, tied in with the comments you've made. Bits and pieces of it are from stuff I had written down about Hallways of Lives...........

- absence and presence
- a speaker without an audience, and resulting importance of the documentation of these events
- Medium - I feel it is really important for your work to use a wide variety of materials and mediums, this is in keeping with the depth and breadth of the issues you seek to tackle
- 'Considering these things, this is what I am left with: it is the work's job to be uncertain of its own existence.' - Anna Sanderson. I don't feel your works you proclaim themselves too loudly; their timidity is their strongest attribute.
- Text. This is really important in your practice. Let's explore the potential of text and image (being a personal interest of mine). Let's use some poetry. Let's see how words can shape the objects which come out of this.
- The personal and the general. I would like to see the show blur the boundary between personal interest and general interest. It would be interesting to see if you could inject parts of yourself into the show, very subtlely, but let them be almost completely overridden by the pop parts of it.
- Time. This is key. Your work seems to vacillate between an obsession with time and a disregard for conventional linear timelines. Let's focus down on this and dig out what you want to say. Is time a controlling factor? Or is it something that can be manipulated usefully? I would love to see the performances deal with this.
- Speaking of performances, let's do a reading, a performance and an artist/curator Q and A session. Let's do them all.

That's what I've been thinking about................let me know what you think!
