My Paracord Happening Cube will appear online, on a monitor in the gallery and in the catalog. The constructivist loom-like Geometric Paracord series stands as a counter-move to all that boyish constructivist rhetoric centralizing on mathematics and equations. The simplicity of the colored paracord allows for the projection of philosophical and scientific explorations of the self and universe.
