Artist Statement:
Once Upon a time in the early
nineteen seventies there was a
boy. This boy was very sick
and had to live on a bed in a
plastic oxygen bubble. Due to
his illness he was alone
without the usual ways to meet
people and make friends. One
day the boy’s mother brought
him a box of crayons and a pad
of paper. He took the tools
he was given and created a new
life for himself. In this new
life he created a healthy boy
with friends and a world that
understood and accepted him.
Weeks had past and the boy
soon left the “real” world to
never come back. Weeks turned
into years and the boy’s
mother greatly missed him.
The mother reached into the
boy’s new world, with the help
of a great doctor. Together
the mother and the doctor did
what they thought was best for
the boy and brought him back
to their “real” world.
In the years since, the boy
has grown into a man. His
physical health has improved.
However, because of his
travels when he was a boy, he
remained between the two
worlds. This leaves the man
today...
