L A N D S C A P E -- B O D Y -- I N F R A S T R U C T U R E
Consciousness ----------------- Touch ----------------------- Movement

A continuous and connective 'bridge' of thoughts and images as one travels through experiences, conflicts, clarity and abstractions of consciousness, attempting to better remember her passage by means of establishing visual-emotional connections, while traversing the Living Bridge to arrive to realizations in life.. Suggesting mankind's evolution towards greater compassion, empathy, acceptance and that which is experiential and tangible as opposed to virtual, poems are from the Fifth Book of poetry by Metzger, '3VOLVE' (September 2012).
