Through subtle shifts in form and context, meanings frequently attributed to objects become blurred, often enigmatically, and require viewer interpretation. By inviting a philosophical response to a viscerally interpreted subject matter, I hope to bind intellectual complexities in my work to a strong instinctual response, making cerebral and intuitive responses inseparable. Much of the work explores united borders between varying spiritual or philosophical traditions, while other images address societal issues such as identity, inclusion, equality, and refute notions of spiritual exclusivity or religious elitism based upon societal standards or cultural norms.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Edward A.
