Almost one
and a half years in the making, this work is made up of 8
integrated panels. I originally conceived the work as being 16 panels, and
imagined it curving around to form a 360 degree circle that would be seen
from the inside. The viewer would then be surrounded by an image of men
sitting around a fire. But after the eighth panel, I felt the piece was
complete. Although the men appear to be Native Americans, I didn't actually
use any models. SACRED SITE represents our most ancient ritual...the use of
fire as a tool for meditation, a journey into what we could call 'waking
dreams'.
