'Unmeasuredinstances' actually comes from a title I gave to my artwork, taken as a whole, many years ago. What follows are from journals written at that time:

((un(measure(d(i)n)stances))

The off-centered (i) nestled between parenthesis, like some seed-tight bud bound within skin, the parenthesis rippling out, patterns of interference, the din of our selves.

To measure, to take up a stance, a fixed position or point of reference, is to place the world at a distance, to untangle oneself from all that blinds (and binds) by its closeness and silences by its mystery.

And so the task is to undo what has been done - to un measure that which keeps apart and sets asunder. To replace the emptiness that surrounds us with an ever renewed becoming. To flow and so to fill, or feel, the spaces between you and i. To see the world as writ in water, and no longer carved in unmoving stone.

To experience space and time without measuring, without mapping it out onto a system - to undo all that, to un-measure the distances and instances which meaning keeps apart. To break down our stances, our fixed positions - to float, unanchored, with nothing to tie us down. To set sail - to let our wonderings become our wanderings. To become as in the beginning, nomads - strangers within a strange land, sojourners tracing for the first time the unmapped shorelines of our heart's content, our true desires: to journey out, explorers in search of our new amor-ica - our new found land of love.
